Networking. This article contains some good information on IPv6 for those who are just starting to get more familiar with it, although toward the end it turns into a bit of an advertisement. Want to understand kube-proxy , a key part of Kubernetes networking, a bit better? I hope you’re able to find something useful here!

The naming system that we are all most familiar with in the internet is the Domain Name System (DNS) that manages the naming of the many different entities in our global network; its most common use is to map a name to an IP address, but it also provides facilities for aliases, finding mail servers, managing security keys, and much more.

Coupled with the advent of the Internet and the development of new technologies such as IPv6, VOIP, IoT, and 5G, companies are suddenly awash in more data than ever before. The reality is that most companies don’t have the tools or processes in place to effectively allow them to build, train, deploy, and test AI and ML models.
