Would you pay for different classes of broadband, whether at home or at work (if you're not already on a very fat corporate pipe)? Four-fifths of those with broadband internet connections are interested in guaranteed quality of service (QoS) from...
IP VPNs often now take advantage of a technology called MPLS (multiprotocol label switching) for greater flexibility and quality of service (QoS), however QoS can become difficult for carriers to maintain as traffic jumps from one network to...
On private networks - LAN, WAN or in the carrier's core - application performance can be assured using two distinct quality of service parameters: DiffServ and MPLS. With MPLS in particular, applications can be graded into a number of classes.
We have a tendency to think about whole classes of problems. In focusing on trying to handle classes of problems like that, we want to take people issues first, define it and then get a technology answer toward mitigating classes of problems.
This would create, at least, two classes - one faster internet for those with lots of money and one slower one for those without. The net as it stands is a wonderfully chaotic place, fundamentally incapable of providing any form of real-time...
Being able to access corporate resources regardless of geography, time or situation increases efficiency, assists in flexible working policies, and is a key element of business continuity planning. Q is for QoS
