Cisco CEO: Service providers will continue to upgrade....

"Cisco CEO: Service providers will continue to upgrade and build out their networks for a decade"

Guess the Cisco CEO is today's recipient of the "No Duh!" award.

If the providers have a clue, they will NEVER stop upgrading their networks... If we are just talking about buildouts, they might get "done" in 10 years, but upgrades... Those never stop.

Re: Cisco CEO: Service providers will continue to upgrade....

That's really the distinction that was being highlighted in the talk. No company would fund investment in infrastructure, at a loss, for years, only to face the prospect of having to rebuild that infrastructure shortly after they start making money off it. An infrastructure needs to reach the break-even point relatively early in its useful life, and then continue operating, with only maintenance applied to it, until it has provided a substantial return on its original investment.
