The Future of Networking: Amazing Technologies Researched

What is Networking?

Computer networking is a collection of mainframe computers, servers, peers and clients, routers, hubs, and interconnecting junctions, wireless or wired network connected in series or parallel to form a chain. A network of a computer allows interactive, collaborative performance. The workload is distributed among various components of a network. Each component ensures transparency if the network has to extend and expand its range and capacity over a period of time. Multiple operations are managed when computers are lined up in series and linked up with physical infrastructure.

Some of the Network Devices Include:

•        Desktop computers, laptops or mainframes
•         Auxiliary agents such as a system of wires, cables, and ports
•         Firewalls to secure networks
•         Bridges link up two different Local Area Networks (LAN’s)
•         Routers or network adaptors allow computers to connect with the internet or Ethernet via jackets.
•         NIC or Network Interface Cards are used to make connects viable by allowing mutual sharing of a common internet connection.
•         Hub or a switch too performs a function similar to that of NIC that is they are distributing agents of internet connection between different factions of a network. The only difference between the two is that NIC has the ability to analyze and review the incoming data before it passes it forward whereas a hub directs the data in all directions without any check and balance.

Future of Networking

Computing networking has made steady progress over the years. Since its inception into the digital world, in the year 1980, networking has broadened in range, style, and composure. The modern-day network encompasses all traditional and contemporary tools, applications and program to redeem the real sensations of networking. Wireless technology is one very recent trend and WLAN is all set to rock and dominate networking.

Wireless controllers which were used to manage traffic onto systems are now nearly null and void and that is because of induction of highly sophisticated processing units within the computing devices. Ethernet cables these days can support gigabits of data along longer distances. The problems networks used to face initially because of less supportive cables are sorted out.

Ethernet cables are environment-friendly, low smoky, resistant to heat or corrosion and perform in continuity for longer durations with minimal chances of damage and decay. Routers are more sophisticated, transparent and act as wireless LAN access devices. Virtualization of servers and software-defined networking are big boosts when it comes to handling massive network operations.

Cloud computing has solved the chronic problem of handling massive infrastructures. Modern-day networking looks more cosmic, sustainable and determined and this is all because of the inclusion of the above-discussed infrastructures or applications into the networks. Networking looks in a state of evolution all the time which is very important for its stability and sustenance.

Let us have a look into some of the most dominating features which could further expand the range, size, style and capacity of networking.

a)    Diamond Conductors:

Silicon is the main constituent of hardware components of computers. In the coming years, diamond, which is used for ornamental purposes, will replace silicon as the main constituent of the physical structure of computing devices. The inclusion of diamond will solidify the performance because diamonds are more rational in displacing heat. Diamonds have an extra capability of conducting electrons too.

Diamonds will assist computers and networks in more belligerent performance. The systems would become less vulnerable to ‘aging’.

b)    Time Cloaking:

Photons are discrete packets of energy. They are the main constituents of light. Light particles are called photons in Quantum Physics. Photons are carriers of data, they carry and transmit data. Fiber optic cables use a light-induced mechanism to transmit data over longer distances.

Now researchers are working on encoding the message within the spaces within photons. If this becomes possible, the network would become more secure as an active intruder won’t be able to even detect the presence of a message.

c)     Nano-Electric Memory:

Computers with artificial brains will work more efficiently and shall respond instinctively. A new framework for extending the intellectual capability is under study, where nano-electrical impulses will personify the cognitive capabilities of machines.

Software Defined Networks

Software-defined networks or SDN has redefined and redeemed the real essence of networking. The thinking apparatus or pseudo-brains and the muscles of the network are dealt with separately in SDN. SDN provides centralized control over all the apparatus and acts as a binding force. More vigilant surveillance of networks is possible with software’s acting as a unification force.

Control plane and data plane are two distinctive modes and handling separately with centralized control. Virtualization of servers and network overlays are subtle manifestations of SDN’s. SDN operates as an open flow network. Networking access is granted to forwarding plane of a router over the network which results in affirmative control and results in increasing the value and essence of the network.

Given below are a few Advantages of SDN:

•         SDN breaks up the networking into smaller pieces which result in more control and increased levels of efficiency and performance.
•         Standard open interfaces are routes which allow safe and smooth passage of data within the network.
•         Virtualization of servers in SDN allows decentralization of servers and lesser demands of physical infrastructure in comparison to hardware controlled networks.
•         The bulk of the operations are managed by a set of protocols, algorithms and related programs so installation of heavy and bulky structures becomes a story of past.
•         SDN is more flexible to handle and manage courtesy of its multilayered structure; things never look beyond reach and out of control.
•         Integration of SDN based networks with innovative models of computing is easy because of its diverse and multidimensional organization.
•        Infrastructure layer and control layer works in tandem but as two separate and distinguishable entities, so an IT professional is always in control of the network.

Cloud-Based Networks

Networks connect with a third party over WAN’s to gain access to all the type of types of equipment, tools, utensils, applications, and services. A pool filled with all technological resources is readily available to network operators as a cloud service.

Networks are shared and so are the computing resources in cloud-based networking. Resources are disseminated upon request of the network owner most of the times. Sharing the network resources with peers to create a virtually centralized digital network is what cloud-based computing is all about.

Cloud-based networking is a sub-class of software-based networking.

Given below are some of the Advantages of Cloud-Based Computing:

•         Cloud-based networks are cost-effective simply because network owners won’t require the purchase of redundant hard drives to accommodate their resources.
•         Cloud-based networks are scalable. Even after purchasing a file server, the owner is never sure that the purchased storage device will be enough to meet the challenges of modern day computing, it could run out of space sooner or later. Cloud-based networking has shunned all measurements and calculations.
•         State of the art services is provided by cloud service vendors. Highly reliable organizations such as Amazon and Google are active cloud service vendors, so the quality of services is expected to be high too.
•         Cloud services are globally accessible. Various franchises of an organization scattered in different parts of the world can organize and distribute their share of resources by simply logging on to the internet.
•         Networking demands have increased in recent years. Networks have grown in size and the levels of expectations have increased dramatically.
•         Innovative designs, tools, and techniques are mandatory to substantiate the increasing demands of multilayered networking zones.
•         Cloud computing, SDN, light-induced photonic models etc. are a few of the many innovative tools and techniques which are applied in modern day networks.
•         Decentralization and virtualization of servers are two main principles which have revitalized the energies of contemporary networking zones.
•         Cloud sources are harbored in a centralized database but allow the indigenous networks to split their workloads into many smaller segments.
•         Software-based networking has reshaped the dynamics of networking dramatically. Multilayered structures, the division of labor and assets, strong connection between various segments of fragmented zones provides the networks the extra ability to work out of their grooves and to break new grounds to stand high well above the competitors.
•         Models of quantum physics have been successfully applied and implemented in the digital world and networks to substantiate the needs of networks.
•         Recent trends and innovations have raised the levels of expectations. Customers want the more authorized, qualitative, cost-effective, unorthodox and peculiar set of tools and techniques in the near future.
•         Computing networks are becoming multidimensional in approach and methodology and aspire to exist as self-sustainable entities.       A delightful mix of experience and youth is required by the tech developers to match up with the needs of networking.

A highly cosmopolitan approach will be required by the software developers to live up to the expectations of digital network owners.

Recent achievements are not below par by any means but realistically speaking lot more needs to be done in order to maintain a balance between the levels of expectations of the owners and delivery of goods and services.

2018 Recap of the Tech Trends

2018 is near to an end. The year witnessed the launch of a number of tech utensils, infrastructures, software’s, programs leading the digital world into a more auspicious, gentle and glittering settings.

Internet of Things:

Every device has the already to become digital. Each non-digital entity can be made to behave, act and respond digitally. Internet of things certainly has multiple dimensions. A series of non-digital devices can be connected, are connected in fact and linked with a digital device and are controlled via the internet.

Internet of things has glamorized, secularized the computing and digital world. Smart houses, smart cars, surveillance cameras and accessories, smart cities are a few of the applications of this technology. One would have never thought of patching up his households with a mobile app, but this has been made possible with the recent and very talented skill and technology called the internet of things.

Now it’s safe, easy and smooth to drive through a cosmopolitan city as the Internet of things has linked up the resources of the city with the smartphone device or a digital app to facilitate the user, who can easily see through the movement of traffic, availability of parking and can pre-empt scenarios and plan accordingly. The devices which are digitally connected are hybrid structures which are reshaped to save time and allow most optimum use.

IoT is a very broad field with multiple dynamics but has truly unveiled newer trends. Our cars, navigators, satellite communication systems are all linked up, patched with one another to serve the purpose of effective, meaningful and uninterrupted communication leading to many tangible outcomes in one go.

A single setting, a drone linked with its peers on the ground that help discovers the hidden treasures of the earth, the weather forecast and upcoming calamities and natural calamities. The military benefits from IoT and so are we as individuals. The multifaceted field has numerous dimensions, some of which are yet to be discovered and worked upon.

5G:

The Internet is the core of modern-day connectivity, it’s the electronic signals which carry out the precious data and make digital user surf through the thick and thin of databases, search engines, magazines, articles, online books, gaming zones and so on.

5th generation internet has gained momentum in the year 2018 and has communication more abrupt and devoid of any backlashes, disturbances. Earlier 4th generation internet connectivity was the order of the day, not to be, 5th generation is running through the optic fiber cable to further streamline the process of modern day communication.

The 4G and 5G are going in parallel but definitely, 5g has to dominate soon, because of its capacity and audacity to serve the most with determination.

SDDC:

Software-defined data centers are a very recent innovation. The heavy and bulky infrastructures are replaced with applications and software’s to dictate the terms. Instructions shall be streamlined and used to process, coordinate and control the flow of data and events and to make communication more effective, equivocal and up to the task.

Nobody would have thought of such a tremendous revolution in previous years. But it has happened and the quality, transparency, and security are much more supportive. Decentralization is ensured leading to more autonomous set up within a single computing zone or a network are a few of the many benefits associated with instruction based networking.

400G Ethernet:

Ethernet is the transmission of data over a series of computers, sockets, cables and nodes and junctions so that each and every set is bonded to the central unit.

Ethernet has to complement the growing pace of the internet so that the data delivery is ensured with all the efficiency. 400g Ethernet is one latest up-to-date in the communication industry which has enabled the networking zones to be more vigilant and can be further expanded without fearing poor connectivity.

Gigabits of the data can be and is transmitted in splits seconds, over longer dimensions without incurring data loss. The latest brand of Ethernet cables is more supportive and determined to counter nuisance of crosstalk and electromagnetic influx which is a bonus and a necessity.

Virtual Reality:

Virtual reality has become more effective in delivering what is expected of it. An artificial world is illuminated, lavished and furnished so as to it looks like a real setting. Education, health and environmental studies use virtual reality to teach, treat and to locate the footprints of endangered species respectively.

3D imagery is created and displayed for instance that of a tropical rain forest in Africa and the viewer can feel as if he is really a tangible part of the setting right at his indigenous location which could be the USA, far east or far west. A traumatic patient can enjoy streaming through the highs and lows of an entertainment zone with 3G imagery and visual display to tranquilize his mind and his mental sensations without making a single move.

Cloud Computing:

Cloud computing provides qualitative transmission of computing resources provided, checked and controlled by a third party vendor at the back end. The organization itself becomes a client in the sense that it purchases all the documents, services and, infrastructure and softwares upon request.

Public and private network clouds are used by hundreds and thousands of users each day and this has made the tasks of the users and network owners much more easily and sustainable. The networking zone has to focus on the outputs and doesn’t need to bother much about harvesting services itself which is a huge relief.

Artificial Intelligence:

Artificial intelligence is the ability of computing units to respond and work as human brains do. Computers are instructed in the form of codes, which are inputs; the device processes the information and responds with the desired action. The machine learning process is streamlined; the digital device itself responds to the call and triggers an action.

The computers are good learners, so they are learned to perform automatically. Artificial intelligence involves codes as the set of instructions; the machine reads the codes and interprets accordingly with a suitable action. The intensity of tech development has increased to a greater extent in the year 2018. Many precious innovations have eased out human lives to a greater extent. We as individuals have become more dependent on technology resultantly.

Human minds have forced computers into the activity of brainstorming, thinking, perceiving the information to generate automated responses. The growing and developing trends are sensational which has raised the levels and standards of living. The earth has become a global village because of high-speed internet. Each and every unit of the globe is connected and apparently, nothing surfaces. Nothing is hidden; acquisition of knowledge from reliable, online sources have become a lot easier and affordable.

Internet of things has further intensified the charisma associated with the digitization. The flow of current and signals is that is required to make a device work like a pseudo-computer. All the flavors are added to the levels which trigger the level of excitement and deep penetration into the splendid digital world. The use, misuse of these utensils has to be avoided because nothing is good or bad in itself, it’s the use which determines the value of a product.

Being digital, doesn’t look safe and good all the times, human mind supersedes all the digital devices and applications because it’s the humans who created out such auspicious tremendous designs out of their minds, so resting back on one's heel must be avoided. The digital innovations must act as facilitators to support the modern day life. Relying too much on them will make a human mind lethargic. The tech revolutions in the recent years and specifically in the year 2018, has added intensity, class, pace, quality and excitement but again a check and balance between use, abuse and overuse has to be monitored time and again.

The computers must not be dictating terms, instead, they must comply with what they are asked to do, and they are mere machines with artificially induced brains which is no way near the brains and nervous system of humans. The artificial intelligence-based neural networks, in artificial intelligence, will always play the second fiddle, and could never lead from the front.

We have to maintain the all-important balance for most effective use of these products. Social media apps, which are becoming more broadened each day with millions of users connecting to make healthy dawn and appealing evenings, are an outcome of the modern day tech revolution. Artificial intelligence, algorithms, high-speed connectivity, Ethernets, all play a vital role in bringing out social media communication apps.

Again connecting too much without a valuable purpose is causing havoc. Our younger generations are becoming addicted to these communication tools that they are unable to communicate between the artificial and the real world. Hypersensitivity, depression, social withdrawal are all the consequences of overuse of such tools which are initially meant to tie people from around the globe to get engage in healthier activities for the betterment of individuals and that of societies.

Top Five Tech Trends of 2019

Technology is moving in the forward direction and with some pace. Technological devices, products, and resources have revitalized the sensations of modern day life.

Everyone wants to communicate flawlessly, people are more interactive and more educated as modern day devices support applications which allow free and meaningful communication and without interruption.

Virtualization of resources to create an artificial environment has broadened the range of collaborative and integrated modes of entertainment, health, and education.

No one usurps the rights of others as people are keener to get entangled with the modern day digital types of equipment which make them contend most of the times.

People are more involved with the outburst of vigor and highly vigilant modes of entertainment, communication, education, health, skill development which appease their mind.

Overuse and abuse of modern day digital devices have their repercussions though, but that is not the topic of study here.

We are going to acclimatize our readers with the very recent innovations in the tech industry in the year 2019.

1) 5G:

It’s time to break shackles as far as internet connectivity is concerned. Fifth generation (5G) is ready to rock and roll the users with faster speeds, more personified connectivity and reliability.

5G is expected to gain momentum next year.

The downfall speed of 1gp/s will soon entail the spheres of digital industry.

Faster connectivity and higher bandwidths will demand better infrastructures to conduct data through a series of interconnected computers.

3G and 4G internet will be operational too but users with compatible devices would be able to surf through the digital world with 5G too.

Following are the few of the advantages one could associate with 5G:

Low latency:

Users can expect a quick and better response in terms of latency with a 5G connection. Lower latency allows more durable and efficient online communication such as online games will require lesser time to receive a response from the competitor.

Higher speed:

Higher speed limits will shed all unpleasant happenings and one may handle multiple tasking with ease.

Internet surfing will become seven times faster with 5G in comparison to 4GLTE.

Over 85% of users will be downloading the stuff from the internet at a pace of 100MBPS.

Lower costs:

5G won’t be as costly as one could expect. It would be very much within the range of the customers and that is primarily because it’s all about capitalizing on the already available infrastructures being used to generate 3G and 4G signals.

The second most awaited upcoming technological utility is Al architectures.

2) AI-architecture:

Artificial intelligence has rephrased the definition of modern-day computing. Human’s ability to think and reciprocate accordingly has been transplanted into computers. Machine learning process is streamlined so that it can self-interpret a certain set of information and proceed accordingly.
Now modern-day computers assist people in pondering over a situation to perform a physical operation.
Personal health care assistants are one example where the ailed person is guided by a machine with a
robotic sense and it helps to manage the time-table and reminds the person of his next consignment.
Voice assistants installed on our Smartphone devices is another subsidiary of Al-architecture where the machine records an audio sensation and proceeds with a certain operation and the job is done.
The architecture is the craftsmanship of human brains to create a near-natural brain inculcated into
computer, fed with instructions to perform a certain task.
Assist Humans:
Al- assistants support humans in carrying out various physical, mechanical and technical tasks.
Robots, for instance, are used to perform operations involving a lot of mechanical energy and physical effort.

AI- architecture systems can be broadly divided into three categories:
Reactive systems:
These are relatively simple in structure and designs, the machines are designed to perceive a certain set of information and respond.
Deliberative systems:
The theme and basic demographics of the world are bred into the system, the ideas, motives, thoughts
and beliefs and the systems take these factors into consideration before responding.
Collaborative-interactive systems:
Are highly influential in the sense that they have the ability to communicate with the peers, a very human-like interpersonal communication before opting the best alternative to adequately perform a certain task.

3) Block chain:

Block chain is the digital record of an online transaction. The ledger or the balance sheet, an online encrypted record of any value is what is meant by block chain.

Blockchain cryptography has resulted in the discovery of digital currency, the most popular of which is Bitcoin.

No cash is required to carry out the business deals, across borders, no worries of cash handling or involvement of banks.

Blockchain will serve the purpose and is serving the purpose of modern day purchases.

The information of the online deal in digital currency is stored by a chain of command known as the blockchain. The decentralized system is more secure and confidential.

Digital currency has made a landmark and one can expect more to come in terms of the retail and purchases and this is only because of the blockchain.

The system is highly secure, digital account holders feel free to break a deal with peer irrespective of his locality and blockchain will do the rest.

High effective, secure:

The system of blockchain is highly secure and effective. Blockchain cryptography is the backbone of digital currency.

4) Data privacy:

More emphasis is laid on data privacy these days. A social media user doesn’t exactly know where, when and how many times his data has been shared. Online business dealers also want a total encryption of their data, to escape any activity of eavesdropping.

A digital user is highly vulnerable to thefts as one is not sure and secure with the privacy of his personal information.

Hundreds of applications, in use, are free to be downloaded and don’t charge much at any stage of use and this is where the potential threat lies.

Information is deliberately leaked to the business partners, or third parties, to make their task of advertisement easier.

Privacy is a matter of grave concern. EU devised a system of centralized data security system which is abbreviated as GDPR. GDPR stands for General data protection regulation. The right to privacy is the right of everyone and GDPR is one solution, as it allows users more control over their data.

Business dealings are simplified too with the centralized version of data security provided by GDPR.

5) Cloud networking:

Cloud networking is a dynamic solution to the data and infrastructure handling in IT-institutes and organizations.

Cloud computing is the third party vendors, service providers, which ease out the task of the organization.

The data is stored in remote servers placed at the back end. The burden is shared to a large extent by the remote cloud server to store and disperse data upon request.

The organization won’t have to place bulky structures and storage devices, the remote and virtual servers controlled by a third party will do the business.

The resources are maintained by the remote servers which are sent immediately upon request by a client.

Device with internet connectivity can pursue remote servers for information, data, storage, and even infrastructure delivery.

Cloud computing is an elastic, durable, multidimensional innovation which serves many purposes in a single click. Just one need to do is establish a link with the remote servers, buy their packages and they shall provide all the computing utensils.

Time management and task management:

Becomes a lot more easily for the organization as most of the hectic tasks are to be performed, controlled and delivered by the cloud service providers.

Human resource management:

Can be done with much more authority and ease and more resources can be pooled for affairs other than ‘stewardship’.

Timely:

Delivery of resources is one very important aspect of cloud servers. They will respond immediately and give access to the services. They can expand the range, texture, and dimensions of the services upon request.

Cloud computing mechanics is highly secure. The customer has to abide by a few laws pertaining to security so that the stored information remains confined to the desired ones only.

There are no upfront capital costs and the user has to pay for the services he uses over a certain period.

Centralized check and balance are provided and the organization itself can break up its computing network into various factions.

One can expect more out of the cloud computing techniques, as it has many more dimensions which can be worked upon for more solid and flawless digitization of resources.

Technology and technological innovations are not only beating about the bush, but they are also applied-oriented and serve the real purpose which is equipping the end user with multilayered features to expand his digital arena.

Groundbreaking technologies have glorified the computing industry. Modern day computing has less to do with patience as multifaceted software’s, programs, and hardware’s have made difficult tasks look easy.

Less input is required, less laborious are the modern day digital devices.

The year 2019 will be more dynamic and progressive when it comes to the launch and up gradation of more user-friendly tools to exemplify the real spices associated with digitization.
