Biography
A message about this blog from the Network and Telecom Strategies team:
* It is intended to be a conversational complement to traditional Burton Group content channels -- part of Burton Group's mission to catalyze constructive debate about pivotal IT issues.
* It's not a marketing vehicle -- great, if the posts pique your curiosity, and you decide to explore Burton Group's services, but that's not an unsubtle goal that's going to permeate every post.
* It's a blog -- a relatively informal and continuous stream of observations about network and telecom-related topics and events, not formal research. That means we won't, e.g., have a couple dozen footnotes/references to support every working hypothesis. The blog is meant to foster collaborative and constructive debate, not to maximize click-through ad revenue or some other "monetization" scheme.
* The tone of blog posts is opinionated -- that's what we do. We have no pretense of either omniscience or always-on-target prescience, however, and we reserve the right to be wrong from time to time -- we'll try to correct/clarify/elaborate/etc. when we are.
* We welcome constructive comments/discussion threads -- especially your opinions about the topics in the blog posts and topics you'd like to see Burton Group cover in research content. If we say something positive about a vendor you dislike, or something negative about a technology or standard you favor; we're simply sharing our perspectives, not trying to sell you anything in particular.

Network and Telecom Strategies (NTS) focuses on planning and building general-purpose infrastructure for managing the convergence of voice, video, and data networks. This research and advisory service covers network transport technologies including virtual private networks (VPNs), wireless and mobility, Internet Protocol telephony, storage area networks, and network architecture. NTS provides both the in-depth analysis and a future-focused architecture framework you need to design and implement scaleable, multi-service networks that transcend public and private boundaries. NTS gives you the details on how specific technologies work, how you can use them, and the long-term value of the standard.
