Russell Bryant has a post on Open Virtual Network (OVN) , a project within the Open vSwitch (OVS) community. I like this article on using Couchbase on AWS from Kubernetes because it addresses an often-overlooked (in my opinion) aspect of containerized/microservices architectures: they still need to communicate to external services.

In case you’re just now catching up on this blog series, I encourage you to visit my Learning NVP/NSX page , which has a brief summary of all the posts in the series. VMware NSX was designed to be integrated into a cloud management platform. Let’s start with a generic overview of OpenStack Neutron and its components.

The deeper we dive into modern technology terms, the more it seems we try to blend physical and virtual worlds together. These areas of tech include general IT and technology, security, IT feeds, cloud computing, data center, mobile, social media, tips and tricks, virtualization, and operating system and software blogs.

etcd is a distributed key-value store (more on that in a moment) and is one of the key technologies that I feel distinguishes CoreOS from other Linux distributions. In this post, I’m going to build on my earlier introduction to CoreOS by taking a slightly more detailed look at etcd. Data Organization in etcd. Data Organization in etcd.

Craig Matsumoto of SDN Central helps highlight a recent (and fairly significant) development in networking protocols—the submission of the Generic Network Virtualization Encapsulation (Geneve) proposal to the IETF. I hope you find something useful—or at least something interesting! Networking.

As opposed to just encrypting data at the transport level (although Acra does that between components of its architecture) or just encrypting data at the storage level (using an encrypted file system or similar), Acra targets encrypting data at the table/row/column level within a database. Welcome to Technology Short Take #80! Networking.

Given my previous role at EMC (involved in storage) and my current role at VMware focused on network virtualization (which encompasses SDN), I was quite curious.

A VPC, or Virtual Private Cloud, is another critical piece of Amazon Web Services architecture. Networking is a complicated topic, so to simplify it, I’ll borrow an analogy from Tom Haslett , the instructor of Linux Academy’s AWS Essentials course. The answer is absolutely not. AWS in non-technical terms.

Michael Webster isn’t a name that normally pops up here in the Networking section of my Technology Short Takes, but he recently wrote an article on installing Cumulus Linux from a MacBook Pro that I thought might be handy. Open Network Linux (main website here ; GitHub repo here ) was recently brought to my attention. Networking.

I think that’s the point Ivan tried to make as well—it’s the architecture and how OpenFlow is used that makes a difference. (Is Brad Hedlund (who will be my co-worker starting on 2/11) created a great explanation of network virtualization that clearly breaks down the components and explains their purpose and function.

He makes comparisons among server virtualization, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, and SDN, and feels that in order for SDN to really hit this market it needs to be “not a user-facing feature, but rather a means to an end” (his words). Here’s hoping you find something useful! Networking. Very cool stuff, in my opinion.

You can also see all DockerCon 2017-related posts by browsing the posts tagged with “DockerCon2017” (see the links at the bottom of this page). I’m not sure I can agree with Kocherlakota’s implied association between virtualization and some of their technical headaches (painful patching, for example—how is that a virtualization problem?),

Top RPA tools RPA tools have grown to be parts of larger ecosystems that map out and manage the enterprise computing architecture. Even the modern workplace can be boring and repetitive. What is RPA? In some organizations, RPA is a way to modernize old software without replacing it. Still, RPA isn’t automatic.
