In any case, here’s another collection of links and articles from around the Net on the major data center technology areas. At DevOps Networking Forum 2016, I had the opportunity to share a presentation on some Linux networking options. You may also find this (related) article on memory inside Linux containers to be helpful.

In this post, I’ve collected a variety of links related to major data center technology areas. First up, there’s a great article on using IPVLAN with Docker and Cumulus Linux (with a tie back to sFlow, naturally!). Here’s a walkthrough by Cody Bunch on setting up BGP on Linux with Cumulus Quagga. Networking. Thanks Jason!

Cumulus VX, if you aren’t aware, is a community-supported virtual appliance version of Cumulus Linux aimed at helping folks preview and test “full-blown” Cumulus Linux (which, of course, requires compatible hardware). Dwayne Sinclair (an NSX SE at VMware) has a write-up on what micro-segmentation is not. Servers/Hardware.

I have here for your reading pleasure an eclectic collection of links and articles from around the web, focusing on data center-related technologies. It tells me that some skills—specifically, Linux, automation/configuration management, software development concepts—are going to be essential for all new IT pros in the near future.
