Divya Sangar started her career in Fiji doing Dialup Internet and PABX installations (when we used to connect customers by hand, crimping on to the MDFs). Now she works on one of the largest private owned fibre networks in the world, the Microsoft Azure Global Network. In this episode Divya takes us on her journey from Network Engineer to Global Networking Blackbelt, unraveling mysteries along the way of this fascinating area of computing that enables distributed services to operate at truly global scale.

We also talk about the recently launched ExpressRoute Edge Node in Auckland, which allows New Zealand customers to connect locally to the global Azure network, reducing the costs of internetworking with our Australian Azure Regions and the world. The ExpressRoute Edge Node in Auckland is a first for New Zealand, unlocking new Network Services including Azure Front Door, ExpressRoute Global Reach and Virtual WAN.
