Teammate Alex Brand has a look at VMware’s new OVS-based CNI plugin, Antrea. Operating Systems/Applications. I recently saw an article stating that VMware is going to use Minio as the object storage platform for Kubernetes, but the evidence presented in the article is anything but convincing.

Some folks from Nicira (now part of VMware) recently published a blog post discussing the OVSDB IETF draft (see here ). Erik Smith, notably known for his outstanding posts on storage and FCoE, takes a stab at describing some of the differences between SDN and network virtualization in this post. Operating Systems/Applications.

This is a fascinating (to me, at least) paper on the implications of non-volatile storage on today’s data centers (and data center hardware). Dwayne Sinclair (an NSX SE at VMware) has a write-up on what micro-segmentation is not. Operating Systems/Applications. Servers/Hardware. Good stuff Juan! Virtualization.

Lennart Koopmann provides a guide to Yubikey authentication in the real world. Operating Systems/Applications. There are some notable caveats for this alpha support (CSI drivers only, same storage class, same namespace), but all these are laid out in Griffith’s article. Cloud Computing/Cloud Management.
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
