Big Data. Big Science. Big Networks. 

Our research groups bandwidth users into four categories: internet backbone providers, content providers, research and education (R&E), and enterprises and others.

Although R&E is often overshadowed—in favor of content providers especially—it is foundational to the other sectors.

Senior Research Manager Jon Hjembo recently discussed this topic with experts from Ciena.

For his part, Jon covered:

  • What are R&E networks and who runs them?
  • What makes R&E topologies unique?
  • What trends do we see for R&E networks?
