Bart’s view is that a full-stack engineer knows about operations, the hardware stack (compute, storage, network), the software (network, operating system [OS], management, logging), and most importantly knows how to “code” an immutable infrastructure. Docker course: [link]. Cassandra and Neo4j.

Networking. What happens when multiple VXLAN logical networks are mapped to the same multicast group? This post by Ranga Maddipudi shows you how to use App Firewall in conjunction with VXLAN logical networks. I talked before about the difference between network virtualization and SDN, so no need to mention that again.
