James Bensley (Techlead Network & Product at Inter.link) shares some advice which is not only applicable to new network engineers, but for engineers at any stage in their career. Despite the telecoms industry changing a lot when it comes to technology and best practices, it is always crucial to gain a deep understanding of the fundamentals. Since technology does not move forward in giant leaps, being familiar with the fundamentals helps engineers to adapt to any changes that come. What advice would you give to new network engineers?

The cloud has revolutionised the criteria for IP Transit services. How did this happen and what has been the impact? This was covered in an article with insight from Inter.link CEO and Co-Founder Theo Voss: https://lnkd.in/e4_gycga The article covers the following topics: ▶ How traffic flows across the internet ▶ How to buy IP Transit services ▶ Smart buyer criteria for IP Transit services ▶ Why you should consume IP Transit like the cloud ▶ Getting sustainable IP Transit services Many IP Transit providers make customers follow a telco-style sales process with opaque pricing. However, the advent of cloud and SaaS has changed IT buyer expectations, making flexibility and visibility essential. #NaaS #iptransit #cloud #internet

The pricing for DDoS Protection is often complex due to two main reasons: 1. Customers can have highly individual requirements 2. There are multiple different types of attacks Since getting the right protection can be complex, this can lead to a kind of blackhole situation. The two options we see frequently are that customers either do not really know what type of protection they are receiving OR they pay a great deal more so that all the detail surrounding the protection is revealed to them. Quality is vital for Inter.link, so we push for transparency and make sure customers know what protection they receive. #ddosprotection #security #network #connectivity

Sustainability is a large topic, so where is the best place to begin? First, it's important for a business to gain an understanding of their current and historical impact on the environment. To do this, they need to measure their carbon footprint. Scopes 1, 2, and 3 are categories which make measuring carbon emissions easier. In this carousel, Inter.link Special Projects Manager Nicol Nógrádi explains what each scope means and how they are different from each other. This information just scratches the surface of the sustainability issue. For more detail, feel free to visit our blog or contact our team! Inter.link is a Certified B Corporation with support from B Lab, and we also achieved the PAS 2060 qualification for carbon neutrality. #carbonemissions #scopemanagement #carbonfootprint #sustainability

We have even more positive feedback for the Inter.link portal! Rob Tyree, Co-Founder and CTO of Fiberhub said, “As I was looking at various connectivity options, I noticed that your portal offered real-time pricing, so I set up an account to poke around a bit and grab some cost estimates. 

 “That’s a fantastic feature and very helpful sales tool. I wish more providers did the same.” Transparency is one of our core pillars, so it is great to hear that this is recognised and appreciated by those who explore the portal.
