The video discusses Verizon’s strategic approach to accelerating the decommissioning (decom) of legacy Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) switches. The speaker emphasizes the importance of TDM switch decom in reducing power consumption, cutting expenses, complying with regional climate regulations, and reclaiming valuable technical space. A key driver for Verizon is the steep costs associated with maintaining aging infrastructure under increasingly stringent local carbon emission laws, particularly in the Northeast Corridor.

Want to know the difference between synthetic monitoring and real user monitoring (RUM)? You're not alone. In this video, we break down both monitoring types, show how they work, and explain when to use each—so you can build a monitoring strategy that gives you full visibility into your website or application performance. Here’s what you’ll learn: Whether you're a DevOps engineer, SRE, or IT admin, this video will help you make smarter monitoring decisions.

Software engineers don’t need more dashboards or forms. They need a reliable record of what actually happened in their systems—and how it ties back to the code. In this video, Mike Long (CEO & Co-founder, Kosli) explains how Kosli records every event in your SDLC and connects it to every system change. This gives you a full, auditable view of software delivery—from code to production.

Engineers didn’t sign up to fill out forms, attend CAB meetings, or screenshot deployments. Yet that’s the reality of compliance in many organizations. In this video, Mike Long (CEO & Co-founder, Kosli) explains how Kosli helps software engineers eliminate the repetitive, meaningless tasks of traditional compliance — and replaces them with something automated, provable, and secure.
