- Distributed Core And East-West Routing--The Network Is Changing
By Stephen Foskett
Applications and data center infrastructures are changing, and this puts a strain on conventional IT architecture. A number of recent announcements have really put this in perspective, with key network infrastructure components devolving from a centralized "hub and spoke" model to one that might even deserve to be called "cloud." Two key harbingers of this change are the shift from "North-South" to "all direction" network traffic and the decentralization of network device intelligence.

- Big-Time Reality Check-- Haiti
By Lee H. Badman
In technology, as in life, it's all too easy to take what we have for granted. Chances are, right now you are personally equipped with more technology than was used to put the first man on the moon. And though most of us tend to be technologically loaded for bear these days, we're always on the prowl for the faster, lighter, higher capacity, shinier, cooler and generally better. Most of us are fortunate to exist in our high-tech personal bubbles, where the basic needs of food, clothing and shelter are rarely a concern.

- Tape Summit Predicts Tape Renaissance
By David Hill
Summing up the recent Tape Summit in Nevada, the basic message was that tape is not only about to see a resurgence but rather a renaissance. This would seem to be counter-intuitive to many, but the claim has merit. Let's explore that and see why, since IT will be the major benefactor if the claim can be proven.

- Top 10 Mobile Apps For Business Collaboration
Collaboration is one of today's strongest business trends, fueled in part by advances in (and employees' experiences with) social media. The ability to exchange ideas and communicate about activities has proven wildly popular in the social sphere -- why not in the business one as well? And recognizing this demand, vendors are making tools available that enable teams to keep track of each others' progress on a group project, exchange information about tasks and contacts, and otherwise work together more smoothly and conveniently. At the same time, though, the trend toward worker mobility continues to grow. More and more workers find themselves working out of the office, on the road or telecommuting, and keeping in touch via their smartphone. These 10 mobile apps will keep the collaborative momentum going no matter where you are.

- No Happy Ending To The Fable Of 'Zodiac Island' And The Cloud Storage Provider
By Howard Marks
Alas, the tales spun by vendors, analysts and other cloud computing cheerleaders that paint the cloud as an infinitely expandable, reliable and affordable kingdom--where "The winter is forbidden till December/And exits March the second on the dot"--are as fantastical as Camelot itself. WeR1 Production, which produces the syndicated children's show "Zodiac Island," is learning this lesson after Binky the sheep and Sonny the tiger went to the bit bucket.

- BufferBloat And The Collapse Of The Internet
By David Greenfield
It seems that every few years there's yet another prognosticator that the Internet is about to collapse. Once it was the stellar growth in bandwidth demand driven by the phenomenal increase in Internet-connected devices. At other times, it was the lack of Net neutrality (see this video). Still other times, it was sinister attacks on BGP or the fact that we've run out of IPv4 addresses.

- Aruba Networks Brings Layer 3 To Wireless Mesh Networks
By Lee H. Badman
Wireless mesh networks have always been big on promise, but often disappointing on performance. It's no secret that the marketing folks for wireless vendors can be a bit adventurous with range and throughput claims, and that many wireless mesh products just don't live up to the hype. Part of the problem has been the traditional repeater-style "lose half your throughput with every hop" principle, which can be exacerbated by poor network design. Aruba Networks addresses pretty much all of the potential mesh wireless pain points with its recently introduced AirMesh product line, and even non-Aruba customers should take note.
