Technology
Over the past five weeks, we've endeavored to explain precisely how data moves around the world, covering the basics of internet, transport networks, data centers, and the cloud along the way.
Today we answer our final, lingering question: What is a WAN?
First, let's get definitions out of the way. WAN stands for wide area network, which came out of the term LAN, or local area network.
Today's episode will help you brush up on the evolution of the WAN. We'll also hear from Brianna Boudreau, TeleGeography's current SD-WAN guru.
