alcatel-lucent converged network solution The cost-effective, application fluent approach to network convergence

The corporaTe neTwork is under pressure
Today, corporate networks are facing unprecedented challenges caused by new iT trends: the increasing utilization of multimedia applications, especially video; the explosion of new devices, such as smartphones, tablets, ip desk phones and video surveillance, and iT consumerization; mobility; and virtualization technologies on the desktop, in the data center and in the cloud. all these trends drive up bandwidth demands, pushing legacy networks to their limit. new smart devices combined with mobility increase the pressure, making it difficult to predict bandwidth consumption. Virtualization squeezes the network from the inside. as iT groups embrace virtualization, it creates increased demand for raw bandwidth and requires the network to automatically react to the needs of virtualized systems — something legacy networks were never designed to do.
