The NetOps Expert

What happens to your visibility when traffic leaves the cloud?
In this episode of The NetOps Expert, Jeremy Rossbach sits down with Alec Pinkham to discuss the collaboration between Broadcom and Google Cloud around Cloud Network Insights (CNI) and the challenge it is designed to address: understanding network performance beyond the boundaries of the cloud environment.
Jeremy and Alec explore why cross-cloud visibility matters as applications increasingly depend on SaaS, public clouds, private data centers, ISPs, and other external networks. They also dig into network and application experience monitoring, Mean Time to Innocence, and how richer network performance data could help NetOps teams troubleshoot faster and support emerging AI and agentic operations.
The conversation also raises a bigger question for NetOps leaders: If AI is only as useful as the data behind it, what happens when a significant part of your network is still a blind spot?
Listen for a practical discussion about cross-cloud visibility, AI-ready network operations, and why understanding what happens outside the four walls of the data center is becoming increasingly important.

In healthcare, a "green" dashboard doesn't always mean everything is working as it should. In this episode of The NetOps Expert, Jeremy Rossbach and Gedeon Hombrebueno explore the concept of Mean Time to Innocence (MTTI) and why network teams are often forced to prove they aren't the source of an outage before the real problem can be found. From stalled MRI images to hidden underlay issues and compliance risks, we discuss why traditional monitoring falls short and how end-to-end network observability can help healthcare organizations reduce downtime, improve patient care, and close critical visibility gaps.

In this episode of The NetOps Expert, Jeremy Rossbach welcomes Broadcom's newest team member, Kevin Woods, for a discussion on one of the biggest trends shaping the networking industry: the shift from traditional network monitoring to AI-driven network observability.
Using the Infoblox acquisition of Kentik as a real-world example, they explore why vendors are expanding their observability capabilities, what these platform consolidations mean for customers, and why end-to-end visibility is becoming essential for AI-powered operations.
Tune in for practical insights on the future of NetOps, observability, and the evolving role of AI in modern network operations.

AI-ready networking is everywhere, but what does it actually mean?
In this episode of The NetOps Expert, Jeremy Rossbach and Alec Pinkham cut through the hype to explore the real network requirements behind AI initiatives. From latency and telemetry to visibility across cloud and ISP networks, they discuss why AI isn't creating new network problems, it's exposing existing ones. Learn how network observability helps teams identify hidden gaps, improve resilience, and prepare for the growing demands of AI workloads.

Network complexity isn’t slowing down, it’s converging. As SASE brings together SD-WAN and secure edge, many teams still struggle with a critical blind spot: what happens once traffic leaves their network.
In this episode of The NetOps Expert, host Jeremy Rossbach sits down with Nestor Falcon to break down key takeaways from a recent SASE conference in Paris. They explore how SD-WAN continues to anchor hybrid environments, why end-to-end visibility is still the biggest operational gap, and how Broadcom customers are using observability to pinpoint issues across third-party networks before they escalate.
The conversation also dives into the rise of AI in network operations, including the shift toward agentic AI and natural language interfaces that simplify how teams detect and resolve issues.
If you're navigating SASE adoption, AI-driven operations, or increasing regulatory pressure like GDPR, this episode offers practical insight to help you stay ahead.
