More and more mission critical networks and devices are integrated with third-party apps, software, WiFi, cellular, sensors, and satellite through subscription services. What do you do if your vendor stops supporting those services, or worse, stops providing them altogether? What happens when a company decides to sunsets their software - or even their hardware - and leaves you searching for a replacement? Hear from those that have been or are going through this process as they examine the connections within their networks and devices, determine what can be salvaged or easily replaced, and what must have a wholesale successor.

Takeaway

Learn about current or upcoming services that are no longer being supported by those in the middle of it.
Understand what needs to be understood within your own network as a software, hardware, or service is discontinued.
Hear about possible exploring and implementing possible replacement technology.
