Here’s a scenario we can all envision: Pattern changes in traffic suddenly flood the network with unprecedented intensity and duration, and despite the use of cloud services and a plethora of backup components across your core network infrastructure, the network still suffers from disruptions. Customers are beyond frustrated, and, now, they’re taking to social media to vent their frustrations.
This is a nightmare scenario, but it’s also a reality for companies across the world. Whether it’s sudden disruption from innovation, a natural disaster, or a pandemic forcing people to stay home, business must continue, and this means networking systems and processes must anticipate unexpected change. They must be future-proofed, and this begins with establishing network resilience. This is never more important than during a crisis.
