Fungible Network and Flexible Platform Design for Modern Infrastructure
Explore techniques for decoupling network design and providing flexible building blocks for infrastructure platforms in this 14-minute conference talk from PlatformCon 2023. Discover why networking is no longer a "build once and forget" component, learn about the capabilities modern networks can provide, and understand how a service-based approach to networking enables decoupling. Gain insights into overcoming challenges in network design and implementation that often hinder platform adoption. Learn from Google Cloud Solutions Architect Paul Revello as he addresses the observed pattern of organizations clinging to rigid network constructs and offers strategies for creating more fungible, loosely coupled network architectures aligned with modern infrastructure practices.
