Disaggregated Routing to Drive the Routing Market: Fireside Chat with Industry Expert Analyst Alan Weckel
The 650 Group expects the market for disaggregated routing to be most of the $15 billion routing market, possibly up to $10 billion a year. They also expect cloud providers to be the driver of this trend and that “cloud is going to win everything.” Disaggregated routing opens the router to more vendors and new combinations. With the advent of faster CPUs, networking does not need to be fully integrated as was done in the past. Even though the various parts of the network may come from different vendors, full line speed can now be achieved. Companies mentioned in this report include Cambium Networks, Cisco Systems, Juniper Networks, Nokia, DriveNets, Marvell, Broadcom, Arista, Acacia, Inphi, Marvell, Ciena, and Infinera.

Sectors Covered

At Water Tower Research we cover a diverse and expanding group of sectors spanning a variety of market-cap ranges, profitability characteristics, and growth profiles of the greatest interest to the financial community. Within each sector there are numerous companies that are not fully understood by the investment community, as information flow has slowed or in many instances completely disappeared due to rapidly changing sell-side dynamics. We believe this unbalanced information flow among various companies makes it difficult for investors to find new investment ideas and prevents the efficient flow of information. At Water Tower Research we bridge that gap by creating credible and consistent research to better connect companies with investors, and investors with companies.
