From Edge to Core: Reimagining Enterprise Networks in the Age of AI

Interested in being a guest? Email us at [email protected] networking landscape is experiencing a seismic shift as artificial intelligence transforms traditional connectivity into intelligent, business-driven infrastructure. Gary Sidhu, Senior Vice President of Product Engineering at GTT, takes us on a fascinating journey through this evolution, explaining how networks are evolving from "dumb pipes" to strategic "business compasses."At the heart of this transformation is GTT's Envision platform, which connects enterprises to their data and applications globally through edge and core infrastructure components. Sidhu articulates how AI is enabling intent-based networking, where administrators can simply state business goals like "prioritize video conferencing" and let intelligent systems handle the complex technical configurations. This capability allows businesses to become more responsive and agile without requiring specialized networking knowledge.Perhaps most compelling is Sidhu's exploration of the emerging "agentic ecosystem" – a world where autonomous AI agents will generate unprecedented network demands, potentially requiring "infinite bandwidth." This future presents both enormous challenges and opportunities for enterprise networking, necessitating new approaches to traffic prioritization, edge computing, and security frameworks that can authenticate non-human network participants. GTT is preparing for this future by building its own "AI factory" with dedicated GPU infrastructure and sophisticated information architecture that powers both internal operations and customer-facing capabilities.Ready to prepare your network for the AI revolution?
