Today’s announcement marks Alkira’s latest security partnership in an approach that Alkira CTO Atif Khan calls “SASE plus plus.”

F5 acquired Threat Stack and other recent SDxCentral news stories.

The work paired IBM's open source Qiskit Runtime and a Dell EMC PowerEdge server to emulate a quantum computer on standard x86 hardware.

What does it take to win in the hyper-competitive SD-WAN market? According to Gartner, a robust SASE strategy isn't a bad place to start.

Peplink, Nuage, Cradlepoint, Barracuda, FatPipe, and Riverbed ranked among the worst in Gartner’s latest WAN Edge Infrastructure report.

The vendor’s “default” is to look to the open-source community for solutions.

“Much remains to be completed for some of the broader elements that sit at the cross-section of wireless, networking, and cloud industries," VMware's Benoit Pelletier said.

Six vendors — Fortinet, VMware, Versa, Palo Alto Networks, Cisco, and Silver Peak — graced the leadership category in Gartner's latest WAN Edge Infrastructure report.

The update extends Dell Tech's CloudIQ AIOps platform to its full infrastructure portfolio and identifies five degrees of artificial intelligence automation.

If AT&T wants to be known as a software pioneer, it sure has an odd way of showing it.

When it launches next spring, Nokia's FP5-based appliances will be among the first to support 800 Gb/s pluggable optics, the vendor claims.

IDC now forecasts annual recurring revenue generated from foundational cloud services to surpass $300 billion in 2025, up from less than $100 billion in 2020.

Infinera believes XR optics can solve 5G challenges; remote workers' homes are a new security market; and Dish Network plans to run on AWS' cloud.

Automation is the best weapon and SD-WAN’s greatest strength in combatting security breaches, Appledore Research's Grant Lenahan argues.

Mavenir CTO Bejoy Pankajakshan described Dish’s strategy as a “hybrid deployment on Amazon Web Services where the central unit goes on AWS and the distributed unit part stays with

The SD-WAN vendor claims the latest appliances can achieve throughputs up to 5 Gb/s over a sub-6 GHz 5G connection.

Secureworks focuses on XDR; Google Cloud introduced Google Kubernetes Engine; and Barracuda Networks launched a SASE platform.

Cisco’s software subscription business has grown 253% during CEO Chuck Robbins’ six-year run at the helm.

Rather than offering its SASE platform as a cloud-delivered service, Barracuda Network's platform relies on customers to deploy their own points of presence in Microsoft Azure.

“When people are modernizing their applications, they are coming to GKE,” said Guru Pangal, GM of Storage at Google Cloud.

Juniper updated its AI portfolio; Palo Alto Networks launched Prisma SASE; and Nokia restarted its technical contribution to the O-RAN Alliance.

Did the group think it could simply call Nokia’s bluff and make the issue go away? Cooler heads did not prevail. The stink from this fiasco lingers.

Prisma SASE combines the vendor's Prisma Access remote access platform with CloudGenix's SD-WAN capabilities in a single unified offering.

SASE is a point of confusion for some IT decision-makers; adopting zero trust is a major way to avoid paying ransoms; and Comcast Business acquired Masergy.
