Hello all,
I have just completed my initial creation of an
"Internet Architecture : Meta Diagram"
( http://navigators.com/internet_architecture.html )
My Intention with this page is to answer the Question:
"What are the major pieces of the Internet,
and who are the major players in each segment?"
I have created a "very tall diagram" with 8 sections, covering the
connection from a Users's PC -> local Loop -> ISP POP - > Backbones ->
online content -> etc.
In each section, I hope to mention most of the significant parts of the
architecture. I also link to the top couple of vendors in each category,
and then link to a more extensive list of vendors.
What I am looking for is a sanity check of the diagram, and most
importantly, your opinion as to who are the largest 3-4 vendors in each
section. I recognize that the diagram is US-centric and contains some
leading edge components as well (LMDS, cable modems, etc)
I am continuing to refine the page, so any feedback you provide should be
incorporated almost immediately. Thanks in advance.
