RickVanoverI've felt that SDN and more have a problem where one person can't do it all. I need to work on my teamwork to do it all.
NetworkingNerdThe Phoenix Project -Brent Problems. One person can't do it all. You need a team to make it truly great.
tnewshottwhat is the push to have other BU's within cisco to expose more capabilities via RESTful services or direct API's?
