3 Signs Your Network Monitoring Is Failing You

Are users reporting issues before your monitoring tools do? Are critical alerts getting lost in the noise? Does root cause analysis take hours instead of minutes? These are 3 signs your network monitoring is failing. Discover how modern observability helps teams detect issues faster and resolve them with confidence.

What Is Coherent Routing?

Coherent routing, Routed Optical Networking, Converged Optical Routing Architecture (CORA), are all names for the same concept: an advanced network architecture which integrates coherent optical transceivers directly into IP routers. This convergence of layers creates a simplified and highly efficient IP-over-DWDM (IP over Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) network.

Why Does Network Topology Decide How Fast Your Network Recovers?

In this video, learn why network topology plays a critical role in network resilience, troubleshooting, and recovery. Discover how understanding network dependencies, eliminating single points of failure, and maintaining clear visibility can help IT teams reduce downtime and accelerate incident response. In this video, you'll learn.

When Local Blocks Go Global: The India-Telegram BGP Incident

Yesterday’s leak of a BGP hijack intended to block Telegram in India is the latest routing mishap best described as intentional, but also accidental — a pattern dating back to Pakistan Telecom’s infamous hijack of YouTube in 2008, in which a domestic block escaped containment and disrupted the service worldwide.

Why route diversity is critical to resilient global connectivity

Subsea cables have long been the invisible backbone of the internet, carrying more than 95% of global data traffic beneath the ocean’s surface. Today, they are no longer just background infrastructure, they sit at the centre of an increasingly complex digital and geopolitical landscape. The rise of artificial intelligence, alongside continued cloud expansion and hyperscale data centre growth, is driving unprecedented demand for high-capacity, low-latency connectivity.

The Godfather of AI Ready Data Centers | OCOLO CEO & Founder Tony Rossabi

AI is reshaping digital infrastructure, but the biggest challenge isn't always building bigger data centers, it's finding the power to run them. In this episode of Uplink, Michael Reid sits down with Tony Rossabi, Founder & CEO of OCOLO, to discuss how AI is changing the data center industry and what it takes to deliver the next generation of infrastructure.

AI is only one of four things driving the data center boom

Tony Rossabi, aka the Godfather, has spent 30 years in this industry. Car washes to Telx to building data centers. He sat down with our CEO Michael Reid to break down what’s actually happening underneath the AI headlines, from where the real demand is coming from, to why a single megawatt of power is so hard to find, and how a team of eight is building 19 ten-megawatt facilities across two continents in 24 months.
