New Supplier on the Block: Graphiant Network as a Service

Jason Kaufman, a principal solutions architect, introduces Graphiant as part of a series showcasing new suppliers in the network as a service portfolio. He explains how Graphiant provides a backbone solution designed to simplify complex network environments by aggregating various tunnels between sites, clouds, and data centers. The presenter highlights Graphiant’s ability to offer seamless integration and advanced security features, specifically mentioning post quantum encryption (PQE) for secure B2B data exchanges. Kaufman notes that the solution serves as a way to manage and monitor traffic visually, helping to replace complex, fragmented toolsets and providing future-proofing for large-scale network designs.

We’ve been showing that network as a service is the next iteration of advanced networking and design layers. So you asked for more of them, we’ve done one better.

Welcome to new suppliers on the block. This series brings you closer to the newest suppliers in the portfolio, showcasing what they offer and how it can strengthen your conversations and customer outcomes. Let’s jump in.

So here I am to introduce you to Graphiant. My name is Jason Kaufman, principal solutions architect. Graphient, by next generation, we mean they are ready for, next level tech things like, PQE, you know, getting in that post quantum encryption, secure, b to b data exchanges. So if a customer has some highly compliant data that they need to share with some partners or third party companies, Graphene gives you an easy way to do that with their backbone, network as a service solution.

So think of something that’s easy to integrate in a complex network. You know, all these different tunnels going everywhere from site to sites, going to clouds to data centers, all that stuff. Graphene can aggregate that and make it much more simple to manage and to see all the traffic coming in. They give you a bunch of visual layers to see all the traffic going from one site or one endpoint to the next, and it makes it for a really seamless integration into an existing network to replace a lot of different tool sets and, you know, duct tape and hack jobs put together.

Graphene is real seamless when it comes together. We leverage them for a lot of, you know, big name network design companies that have we have so many tunnels, ten thousand tunnels going here, another tunnel going here, and it adds a lot of complexity. Every time we wanna add to a to a big network, Graphene could come in and kinda aggregate all of that and make it much more simple to manage, to monitor, and gives the team, you know, be able to future proof because they can do a lot of that post quantum encryption and that exchanges that has been really complex for a lot of teams lately. So if

you think of companies like Megaport, Kato, Aryaka, Packet Fabric, any of those companies that have a backbone, that have a true network as a service offering, Grafian is a great one there to come in, and they’ve been doing some great things for us already.
