The collection of links shared below covers a fairly wide range of topics, from old Sun hardware to working with serverless frameworks in the public cloud. The first is a post on Cilium and F5 load balancer integration , while the second discusses implementing Kubernetes network policies with Cilium and Linkerd. Networking.

The “TL;DR” for those who are interested is that this solution bypasses the normal iptables layer involved in most Kubernetes implementations to load balance traffic directly to Pods in the cluster. Servers/Hardware. Unfortunately, this appears to be GKE-specific. Nothing this time around.

Servers/Hardware. I recently used a variation of the information in this article to keep OTR private keys in sync among a group of OS X-based systems. John Kozej walks through how to configure vCenter HA using the NSX load balancer. Nothing this time around, but stay tuned for something next time. Virtualization.

If you’d like to play around with Cumulus Linux but don’t have a compatible hardware switch, Cumulus VX is the answer. Servers/Hardware. William Lam breaks down the real value of load balancing your PSC in this in-depth article. I would respond to that by saying OpenStack Neutron wasn’t built to manage a physical network.

Russell Bryant has a couple great articles on OVN— how to test OVN’s “EZ Bake” release with DevStack as well as an article on implementing OpenStack security groups using OVN ACLs (which in turn leverage the integration between Open vSwitch and the Linux kernel’s conntrack module). Servers/Hardware. It’s a whirlwind of technologies.

True, both have made huge strides in the hardware world to allow for blade repurposing, I/O, address, and storage naming portability, etc. However, in the software domain, each still relies on multiple individual products to accomplish tasks such as SW provisioning, HA/availability, VM management, load balancing, etc.

This low level software allowed multiple applications to run on the same physical hardware but believe that they had the box all to themselves. This resulted in the IT department having to maintain farms of servers that were all horribly underutilized. The arrival of virtualization software changed everything. No related posts.
