Technology Short Take #77

Scott Lowe

Simon Leinen (from SWITCHengines) explains their use of IPv6 with OpenStack. Servers/Hardware. The post is a bit geeky but quite informative, and worth reading if SSH bastion hosts are a key part of your architecture. John Kozej has a write-up on an NSX logical switch packet walk. Not sure what a bastion host is? Read this post.)

Expanding the Cloud - Cluster Compute Instances for Amazon EC2.

All Things Distributed

Additionally, many high-end HPC applications take advantage of knowing their in-house hardware platforms to achieve major speedup by exploiting the specific processor architecture. There is no more need for hardware tinkering to keep the clusters up and running (I spent many nights doing this; there is no glory in it).

I highly recommend you read the entire post, but in short the five skills Matt recommends are software skills (which includes configuration management and software development tools like Git ), Linux, deep protocol knowledge, hypervisor and container networking, and IPv6. Servers/Hardware. Virtualization.

Nick Buraglio discusses IPv6 Unique Local Addressing (ULA). Servers/Hardware Kevin Houston provides some instructions on backing up the Dell PowerEdge MX7000 settings and configurations. Frank Denneman digs into Sapphire Rapids memory configurations (Sapphire Rapids is Intel’s 4th generation Scalable Processor Architecture).

Technology Short Take #65

Servers/Hardware. Want to run Docker Swarm with IPv6? GitHub recently changed their storage architecture, using a Git-based solution called DGit. This one isn’t quite virtualization, but isn’t quite hardware either, so we’ll throw it in here. Nothing this time around. Maybe next time! multipathing with KVM.

Tor Anderson has an article on using IPv6 for network boot using UEFI and iPXE. Servers/Hardware. A lot of people think tools like Consul are only valuable in “next-generation” microservices-based architectures, but Benny’s article shows how it can add a lot of value in “traditional” architectures. Networking.
