Light Reading Publishes Exclusive Interview With John Chambers of Cisco Systems
NEW YORK, March 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Light Reading this week published an exclusive interview with John Chambers, CEO and Chairman of Cisco Systems Inc. (CSCO). The video interview, which took place at the Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona, provides insights into Cisco's virtualization strategy, as well as revealing how Chambers personally drives the pattern of reinvention within his company. He also talks about the threat from white box/white label solutions, and describes how Cisco will compete with them.
The interview is available on the Light Reading site (http://www.lightreading.com/nfv/exclusive-ciscos-chambers-on-reinvention/v/d-id/714148).
The interview coincides with the publication this week by Light Reading of an industry-first validation of the virtualization and cloud solutions from Cisco Systems. The independent test was conducted by leading test company EANTC, and paid for by Light Reading, to ensure impartial and authoritative results. Light Reading's evaluation is immensely significant because service provider virtualization is by far the most talked about technology in the history of communications. And, to date, public validations of network-based virtualization in action have been non-existent.
The report is available on the Light Reading site (http://www.lightreading.com/nfv/nfv-tests-and-trials/validating-ciscos-service-provider-virtualization-and-cloud-portfolio/d/d-id/714092).
Light Reading's interview with Chambers is part of a weekly series of "CEO-to-CEO" conversations, hosted by Steve Saunders, CEO and founder of Light Reading, in which Saunders talks to the smartest and most insightful executives in the next-generation communications industry about leadership, and the trends that are changing the world's communications economy.
