We’re seeing a glimmer of the future – the Internet of Things (IoT) – where anything and everything is or contains a sensor that can communicate over the network/Internet. You can opt-in to smart metering so that a utility can load balance energy distribution. This post first appeared on George Romas’ HP Blog.

Basically, they are looking to provide programmability to the network via their Application-Centric Infrastructure. This is different from the current software first movement in that Cisco’s approach is based on their hardware first view of the network. HP – Top of Rack. F5 – Security/Load Balancing.

Clearly there are some real benefits to using OpenFlow in certain use cases (here’s one example ), but that doesn’t mean OpenFlow—especially hop-by-hop OpenFlow, where OpenFlow is involved at every “hop” of the packet forwarding process throughout the network—is the right solution for all environments.

HPs BladeSystem Matrix architecture is based on VirtualConnect infrastructure, and bundled with a suite of mostly existing HP software (Insight Dynamics - VSE, Orchestration, Recovery, Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager) which itself consists of about 21 individual products. But how revolutionary and simplifying are they?

In part 1 of this series, I covered some networking basics (OSI and DoD models; layer 2 vs. layer 3; bridging, switching, and routing; Spanning Tree Protocol; and ARP and flooding). For the purposes of this discussion, I’ll assume that the load balancing is being done based on source and destination IP address.

IO Virtualization is an approach whereby physical IO components such as Network Interface Cards (NICs) Host Bus Adaptors (HBAs) and Keyboard/video/Mouse ports (KVM) are reproduced logically rather than physically. Converged Networking Adapters (e.g. HP VirtualConnect ). What is IOV? Todays Physical Infrastructure.
