Happy holidays, TeleGeography Explains the Internet listeners.
We hope you're savoring the brief week between Christmas and New Year's when the world takes a moment to pause and reflect. School is out, schedules are topsy-turvy, and cookies are acceptable for breakfast. Perhaps like some of us, you've lost track of movies watched and presents wrapped.
If you're looking to take a break between the winter gatherings, grab some headphones. We've got you covered for an hour or so.
As the year draws to an end, a few teammates joined us on the podcast to review the major telecom events of the past 12 months and chat about what we might anticipate in 2025. Some highlights 👇
- Analyst Lane Burdette joins the show to review some of the most headline-grabbing trends we saw in the submarine cable world.
- While cables keep the continents connected, Principal Analyst Patrick Christian got on the mic to discuss one of the key reasons for that connectivity demand: cloud services.
- Of course, underlying the cloud are the data centers. For that conversation, we welcomed back Senior Manager Jon Hjembo after recently explaining our new Market Connectivity Score a few weeks back.
- When it came to enterprise networks in 2024, it was hard to have a conversation that didn’t involve NaaS and security, specifically SASE. To talk about the real trends surrounding the buzzwords, we had to call on Research Manager Brianna Boudreau.
- So many of these conversations are underpinned by the transport network. To chat about the cost of sending bits around that global network, we were thrilled to welcome Research Director Rob Schult to tell us what was noteworthy in the world of telecom pricing in 2024.
Before we get into it, the TeleGeography Explains team wanted to thank everyone for listening, especially those who contacted us with feedback, new show ideas, or just general interest in our work.
We've had a fabulous time talking with you all about how the world stays connected. More to come next year. And until then, we'll see you on the internet.
