You just read about Infinera. One of the companies whose work it now carries:
Coriant built Optical transport, OTN switching and control software. What became of it?
Coriant brought Optical transport, OTN switching and control software to Optical. That work was distinctive enough to lead to its acquisition by Infinera for US$430M. The standalone name now passes into the archive — but the team and technology continue inside Infinera today. One of 430 names here whose work outlived the company.
You just read about Optical. A technology from the archive that helped get us here:
Cisco Dynamic Packet Transport (DPT/SRP) served 1999–2000. What ultimately replaced it?
Cisco Dynamic Packet Transport (DPT/SRP) cisco's proprietary Spatial Reuse Protocol ring - the precursor that seeded the later RPR standard. Its job passed to RPR standard — but the problem it solved, and the ideas it proved, live on in what replaced it. The standard rests here in the archive. One of 198 technologies here that opened a door and then held it for the next.
