The New Middle Mile 2023 Report by AvidThink and Converge Network
AvidThink and Converge Network Digest are pleased to present our New Middle Mile Resource site that examines the evolution of middle mile infrastructure. We discuss how the changing needs of consumer and enterprise workloads will reshape the middle mile and suggest a new definition of the middle mile. We show how the middle mile will transform into a strategic location in the end-to-end digital pipeline from edge to cloud and share the key technologies to make this happen. Check out the videos from thought leaders, and download the AvidThink report.
The New Middle Mile
The New Middle Mile is transforming from a traditional thick-to-thin, fat-tree distribution network into a more dynamic and interconnected web.
Flexible Architecture
By adopting a more flexible architecture across all layers, from physical to network to application, the new middle mile can provide flexible and resilient connectivity, better accommodate the diverse requirements of modern workloads, and deliver a superior end-user experience.
Orchestration
Orchestration will play a pivotal role in this process, enabling the coordination and management of diverse middle-mile assets, optimizing network performance, and facilitating the seamless integration of new application technologies and services.
