From the Graveyard
You just read about Optical. A name from the archive that helped shape it:
ADVA Optical Networking built Metro optical, packet edge and timing systems. What became of it?
ADVA Optical Networking brought Metro optical, packet edge and timing systems to Optical. That work was distinctive enough to lead to its acquisition by ADTRAN Holdings for €746M. The standalone name now passes into the archive — but the team and technology continue inside ADTRAN Holdings today. One of 430 names here whose work outlived the company.
From the Technology Graveyard
You just read about Optical. A technology from the archive that helped get us here:
Optical Burst Switching (OBS) served from 2000. What ultimately replaced it?
Optical Burst Switching (OBS) sent a control packet ahead to reserve an all-optical path, then fired a data 'burst' through without buffering it anywhere. It has largely passed into history, but the ideas it proved still shape the networks that followed. Its name rests here in the archive. One of 198 technologies here that opened a door and then held it for the next.
From 25 years of the Converge Digest archive.
