Most enterprises that we talk to are dealing with concurrent challenges including cloud migration, adapting to a hybrid workforce, converging network / security requirements and supporting new operating models.

There are lots of vendor-specific perspectives there that point straight to a specific product as a way of addressing a particular challenge, but this often ignores the specifics of the business. We want to leverage our global perspective and experience across multiple vendors and industry verticals to provide more tailored advice and recommendations to these enterprises. We are launching our NextGen Series to provide enterprises with a framework that can enable their digital transformation initiatives.

Some of the main themes we’re focusing on as part of this thought leadership series include:

In this episode, Coevolve CTO Ciaran Roche discusses these themes with CEO Tim Sullivan, providing an introduction to the thought leadership Series and addressing the topics that many of our enterprise clients have raised.

Many of Coevolve's clients have replaced traditional telco backbones with a modern, software-defined alternative. In this episode, Ciaran Roche is joined by Kevin Skahill, Senior Director of Product Management at Equinix to discuss this model. Why should enterprises consider adopting a software-defined middle mile as an alternative to traditional approaches?

We've covered a lot of technical details in previous episodes. In this episode we decided to take more of a geographical focus. Host Ciaran Roche is joined by James Halberstadt, Coevolve's Managing Director for the EMEA region, who joined the team in December 2021.

Ciaran and James discuss the practicalities of delivering next-generation networking services in the EMEA region, and how Coevolve's approach can be a great fit for enterprises looking for an alternative to the traditional telco model.

Secure Access Service Edge, or SASE has become one of the most-discussed topics in enterprise networking. But how much of this is marketing hype, and what represents real enterprise value? We invited Eyal Webber-Zvik, VP of Product Marketing at Cato Networks to join us for an in-depth discussion on all things SASE.

Cato Networks is one of Coevolve's strategic partners, and has a global "pure-play" SASE offering. 

In this episode, Ciaran and Eyal cover a range of topics related to SASE, including:

Welcome to Ahead of the Cloud, Coevolve's Podcast on SD-Wan, SASE, multi-cloud networking, and other next generation networking technologies.

Today, our host Ciaran Roche is joined by Coevolve's co-founder and CEO, Tim Sullivan. Both are going to be talking about something that likely is the most frequently discussed subject when we speak with customers and prospects recently: this whole topic around "Work from Anywhere!" and Hybrid Work, specifically what that's going to do to the enterprise network.

In March of last year, we saw enterprises almost overnight having to reinvent how their networks are going to work. They had to get connectivity up very quickly to support remote workers and get them productive within typically hours or days at best.

But what we're starting to see now is that we're past all of that, and we're now at a scenario where enterprises are looking at something more complex: they're looking at more of a permanent "work from anywhere" model.

They're trying to figure out how to deal with this scenario where they're going to have some users in an office all the time, some never in an office, some that are in an office two or three days a week, and delivering a consistent user experience across that user base.

In this episode, we discuss how an enterprise might be able to build a sustainable model for their network to support that type of pattern.

In this new episode of the Ahead of the Cloud podcast, we've got a really exciting discussion where we talk a lot more about Multi-cloud networking. We've seen it go from a side-topic to being a dominating trend in the SD-WAN and cloud conversation.

When we first started deploying SD-WAN solutions, anything cloud-related in terms of cloud infrastructure was typically just a very basic extension of the corporate WAN. What's happened since then is that there's an immense amount of focus being placed on the cloud infrastructure component. We've seen a lot of clients move their entire data centers into the cloud. We've seen many starting now to look at multi-cloud deployments. And we're being asked regularly, how do you deal with this challenge? How do you provide secure connectivity into and between these cloud environments?

It's a big topic. There's a lot of detail behind it. And to facilitate that discussion, we wanted to bring somebody else that could add value to it and really share some of their practical experience.

Today we're joined by Sudhir Sakhuja, our managing director at North America.

Are enterprises being too conservative with their network underlay? In this episode, Ciaran and Tim look at why this might be the case, and how enterprises can look at an alternative approach to sourcing the underlay that makes up the foundation of their network.
