About Our Guest
Khalid Raza, Founder & Visionary, Graphiant; Inventor of SD-WAN
Khalid Raza has spent three decades thinking about a problem most people don’t
know exists: how information actually moves across the world, and why the
infrastructure carrying it keeps breaking under the weight of its own complexity.

He arrived at Cisco in 1993, just as the commercial internet was finding its
footing, and spent the next seventeen years inside the machinery of global
connectivity, architecting networks for the carriers and institutions that form the
backbone of modern commerce — including AT&T, Verizon, Deutsche Telekom,
and JP Morgan Chase. When those networks failed, business stopped. Khalid’s
instinct, then as now, was to ask whether the failure was a symptom of something
more structural, and whether a cleaner idea existed somewhere upstream.

That instinct produced SD-WAN. As co-founder and CTO of Viptela, Khalid
applied software-defined principles to wide-area networking at a moment when
most of the industry considered the problem already solved. Viptela’s acquisition
by Cisco for $610 million validated the approach; the $8 billion industry that
followed validated the idea.

His company, Graphiant, is the next chapter in that same path of inquiry. The
question Khalid is pursuing now is whether enterprise networking can be rebuilt
from first principles, to bring about intelligent infrastructure for the next
generation of networks.
