 Live from San Francisco, extracting the signal from the noise. It's theCUBE, covering Console Connect Live 2015. Sponsored by Console. There's your host, John Furrier. Our flagship program, we go out to the events and extract the signal from the noise. I'm John Furrier, my co-host Jeff Frick here for Console Connect Live 2015. This is the engine room as Jeff was talking about. We're all the innovations happening on a whole modern infrastructure and interconnection. A whole new internet's being built. Gen two, of Gen three, Gen two, whatever you want to call it, the internet's happening right now. Live in San Francisco, of course. Today, Jeff is also the big Apple event. Their biggest event history. Some say some Taylor Swift may be there. Other big names. But if you like Apple, you like Netflix, you get the experience of what's going on. People are unplugging cable. People are now changing how they use the internet. And I think to me, Console Connect is the event where a whole new internet's being re-engineered to provide the kind of quality of service that people expect with native applications like Netflix consumer applications. All moving to the enterprise. And obviously we do videos, so we know about video. Video's the primary app. Pictures and video, rich media is the future. That's how people are collaborating. That's how people are consuming. That's people are playing on the internet. And again, Knob Hill in San Francisco at the Masonic Center is where we're at and we're here with Console Connect. Really a kind of an emerging segment in the technology space. Of course, SiliconANGLES on top of these major trends. We have always picked up the new trends from big data, cloud, whatever, DevOps. This is important because what's going on here will redefine the transport and interconnections around cloud computing, big data, and applications. As applications become more prevalent and pervasive in the enterprise, Jeff, you're going to see a whole new level of engineering. We talked about a VMworld, DevOps, programmatic access to infrastructure. To go down to the root level is the pipes. And the internet really hasn't been reconstructed in generations. This is marks the shift of the re-engineering of the internet and it's really going to be a great event. Again, not all the fanfare, not a big press event because the press aren't on this yet. This is a discovery. Yeah, John, I'm reminded of our conversation with Dominic Orr from Aruba Networks at HPE Discover earlier. And he talked about how the changing use cases around wireless are very different than what the original wireless networks were set up to do. And he gave a great use case of an executive in his car going from his mobile to his Wi-Fi to his office and continuing to have his meeting to jump on his go-to meeting. And now we're seeing the same thing on the internet. The internet was not built for the enterprise class infrastructure demands that are being put on it now. It's demanding kind of an X-Gen build out. And really that's what the Console Connect Live is all about. Talking about how our enterprise is leveraging the internet, leveraging the ubiquity of the cloud. But how do you get that stuff all together so that you can reliably deliver enterprise class services? The other thing that from VMworld last week, there's a lot of conversation about attack surface. How do you reduce attack surface? Because we know these internet connections are under constant attack in lots of different ways. So again, another really core fundamental problem that they're trying to address and really the next gen of an internet infrastructure to support these enterprise applications. Yeah, and the thing that we also heard at VMworld last week was this end-to-end message. Unified hybrid cloud. The word unified is coming up in VMworld. Not a new word to say Cisco. Unified servers and all kinds of blades and networking. But the word unified really teases out the future. And as you have multiple cloud providers, Azure, VMware, Google, all this abundance of dark fiber, all these connection points, a new internet that's being constructed, unifying them together is critical. So what we're going to see here today at Console Connect is a new ecosystem of interconnections. And it's not a one network thing. It's like, it's an ecosystem. So it's not like these guys are rolling out their own global network. They are piecing together a collection of partners to create that interconnection to scale up that next generation applications. Resiliency and agile are the two words that come out the most in the cube conversations around cloud and DevOps. This is a key component of what these guys are doing. And again, DevOps, if you're using APIs, if companies are using APIs, you will see a serious amount of APIification. APIification really is the trend that corporations are doing. That opens up a huge security hole. APIification needs Console Connect. So that's kind of the big trend. Asymmetric networks, Pat Gelsen can talk about asymmetry, talking about internet of things. All of these new modern use cases really need new networks. Yeah, it's, again, everything is getting connected. And like we joke about the cloud of somebody else's computer, it has to be connected. And really the Achilles heel of cloud-based everything is when you can't get on the network where we don't have dependable connections. So we got a full slate day, a full day today, John. We're again up here at San Francisco Knob Hill, Masonic Center, literally the top of San Francisco. It's hot, it's going to be a good day. And I'm looking forward to it. Yeah, I mean, we're going to have Bill Norton on who's the founder of Equinix and Entrepreneur. These guys know the carrier business. These are the people who are attending this show and they know things like, we're part of the guys early on at YouTube, Netflix. These are the network guys, the California geeks I call them. They know all the nuances of what's going on, the make stuff work at the lowest possible levels, packets flying all over the world. And the worst case scenario is on the public internet is that we heard stories about stuff being redirected to China. The slow boat to China, if you will. And that's where the hacking happens. People can send packets on the lowest cost route, might not be the most ideal. So routing, packets, interconnection. These are the buzzwords. Jay Adelson, founder of Dig, also part of Equinix as well, Bill. We're going to have Albert Joe, who's the CEO of IIX, now called Console Connect. Again, IIX now renamed their company to Console Inc. Funded by NEA, huge amount of funding. Again, very important trend here. It's very nuanced, it's not really well known, but we're going to unpack it. We're going to extract the signal from the noise and share that with everyone out there. And hopefully get some good data from all of our guests. So you're watching theCUBE live in San Francisco at the Masonic Center at Nob Hill. Be right back with our next guest after this short break.
