The efficiency described by Cloud Opinion is similar to what James Watters discussed in this post from 2013 (also thanks to Massimo), which extols the benefits of using Cloud Foundry on top of “plain” IaaS offerings in order to increase utilization/efficiency. Operating Systems/Applications. That’s handy. Virtualization.

When I joined the NSX team in early 2013, a big topic at that time was overlay protocols (VXLAN, STT, etc.). Operating Systems/Applications. Aside from a Windows VM I maintain for the occasional thing I can’t do effectively on Linux or OS X, I haven’t worked with Windows in any significant capacity in quite a while.

Operating Systems/Applications. Only a true geek would be interested in this, but here’s some information on running OpenBSD in KVM on Linux. Given my past interest in OpenBSD and my present interest in KVM on Linux, this might be something I’ll be trying myself soon. Cloud Computing/Cloud Management.

VMware introduced VMware NSX recently at VMworld 2013. Operating Systems/Applications. While I was at VMworld 2013, I had the opportunity to talk with SanDisk’s FlashSoft division about their flash caching product. x that involves booting on a Linux CD. This looks interesting. Very good stuff!

This is an older post from April 2013, but still useful, I think. Intel announced the E5 2600 v2 series of CPUs back at Intel Developer Forum (IDF) 2013 (you can follow my IDF 2013 coverage by looking at posts with the IDF2013 tag ). Operating Systems/Applications. Servers/Hardware. What makes up a hybrid cloud?

I’m back home in Denver after spending a few days in San Francisco at Intel Developer Forum (IDF) 2013, so I thought I’d take a few minutes to sit down and share a summary of the event and my thoughts. First, here are links to all the liveblogging I did while at the conference: IDF 2013 Keynote, Day 1: [link].

In 2013, researcher Nitesh Dhanjani found that a popular brand used simple MD5 hashes of the device's MAC addresses for authentication. You want to automate the HVAC system for remote access. If you've never worked with embedded systems before well, they are different. Problem is, MAC addresses are not great for authentication.
