Multi-mode fiber has been the workhorse for fiber optic communication within a data center for years, as well as the choice for Ethernet backbones in office buildings. It has a rich history that goes all the way back to the first optical fiber standards when 100 megabits per second was a huge data rate. Anybody remember those days?

In Episode 53, we continue our conversation with Hao Dong, market technology development manager for Corning’s optical communications business. We get into the difference between single-mode and multi-mode fiber.

Explore what happened during recent outages at google.com, X (formerly Twitter), and CDN service jsDelivr.

The Internet Report team will also discuss why a detailed understanding of every component in your service delivery chain is vital to maintain the availability and resiliency of your service. If even one component encounters challenges, the entire service can be impacted.

In jsDelivr’s case, for example, the detail at issue was an expired cert, which created problems serving content and impacted many websites that rely on the CDN service.
