Each episode opens with a recent network outage, a peering dispute, or a routing-table anomaly — then traces the engineering decisions and business incentives behind it. Lucas maps the technical architecture (BGP, MPLS, IXPs), while Luna pushes on the economics: who pays for undersea cables, why ISPs throttle certain traffic, and how network neutrality shapes startup access. They analyze real incidents — AWS’s Tokyo region failure, a Level 3 vs. Cogent peering war, or the latency impact of a new data-center route — and explain what network engineers actually debate in NANOG meetings. This is not a ‘how the internet works’ primer; it’s the layer-3 view for professionals who manage, build, or invest in network infrastructure. Expect granular discussions of dark fiber, CDN caching strategies, and the politics of IP address allocation. By the end, you’ll see the internet as a finite, fragile, and fiercely competitive topology — and understand why a single undersea cable cut can reset stock prices. #InternetInfrastructure #NetworkEngineering…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-18T22:19:10.157593+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/networking-tech-with-fexingo-internet-infrastructure-routing-and-network-engineering-7871928"},"episode":{"title":"How Disaggregated Routing Is Unlocking Vendor-Neutral Networks","slug":"how-disaggregated-routing-is-unlocking-vendor-neutral-networks","published_at":"2026-06-15T21:57:16+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/networking-tech-with-fexingo-internet-infrastructure-routing-and-network-engineering-7871928/how-disaggregated-routing-is-unlocking-vendor-neutral-networks","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/networking-tech-with-fexingo-internet-infrastructure-routing-and-network-engineering-7871928","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/networking-tech/episode-0053.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/networking-tech/episode-0053.mp3","summary":"Episode 53 of Networking Tech with Fexingo dives into the shift from monolithic routers to disaggregated, white-box hardware running open-source network operating systems. Lucas and Luna explore how software like SONiC and FRRouting separates control and forwarding planes, enabling operators to mix and match hardware from different vendors. They examine real-world adoption at major hyperscalers, the role of the Open Compute Project, and how this trend is lowering costs and accelerating innovation. The hosts also discuss the trade-offs: operational complexity, the need for in-house engineering, and why traditional vendors like Cisco and Juniper are pivoting. A must-listen for network engineers evaluating next-gen architectures. #DisaggregatedRouting #WhiteBoxNetworking #SONiC #FRRouting #OpenComputeProject #NetworkOperatingSystem #VendorNeutral #Hyperscaler #DataCenterNetworking #RoutingProtocols #BGP #NetworkEngineering #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #NetworkingTech #Podcast #TechTrends Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"Episode 53 of Networking Tech with Fexingo dives into the shift from monolithic routers to disaggregated, white-box hardware running open-source network o…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":597,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/networking-tech-with-fexingo-internet-infrastructure-routing-and-network-engineering-7871928/episodes/how-disaggregated-routing-is-unlocking-vendor-neutral-networks/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/networking-tech-with-fexingo-internet-infrastructure-routing-and-network-engineering-7871928/how-disaggregated-routing-is-unlocking-vendor-neutral-networks.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
