Networking. The first is a post on Cilium and F5 load balancer integration , while the second discusses implementing Kubernetes network policies with Cilium and Linkerd. Second, the content reflects—in my opinion—the changing nature of what it means to be a “networking professional.”

Networking. Eric Sloof mentions the NSX-T load balancing encyclopedia (found here ), which intends to be an authoritative resource to NSX-T load balancing configuration and management. Operating Systems/Applications. Here’s hoping that I found something useful for you! This is kind of cool.

Networking. Romain Decker has an “under the hood” look at the VMware NSX load balancer. I’ll keep an eye open for links to include next time around. This graphical summary of the AWS Application Load Balancer (ALB) is pretty handy. Operating Systems/Applications.

This time around, the content is a bit heavier on cloud management and applications/operating systems, but still lots of good content all the way around (I hope, anyway). Networking. Matt Oswalt recently wrapped up his 3-part “DevOps for Networking” series. tech preview of virtual networks for Docker.

Networking. The engineering team at Lyft recently discussed a new overlay-free networking approach they’ve been working on for Kubernetes: IPVLAN-based CNI stack for running within VPCs on AWS. (For VPCs, or Virtual Private Clouds, are Amazon’s software-defined networking mechanism for workloads running on AWS.).

Networking. Continuing on that Envoy theme, you may find this article by Matt Klein—one of the primary authors of Envoy—helpful in understanding some of the concepts behind modern load balancing and proxying. Non-code contributions are, in my opinion, an important but oft-overlooked aspect of open source communities.

Networking. If you’re interested in learning more about OpenFlow and software-defined networking but need to do this on a shoestring budget in your home lab, a number of guides have been written to help out. Also see the “Networking” section above for a related post on the networking aspects involved.

Networking. I think this three-part series on new network models for cloud computing ( part 1 , part 2 , and part 3 ), while almost a year old, is quite good. 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.

Networking. Mustafa Akin has an article on Docker’s new overlay networking functionality. Here’s a post that claims to translate OVS and OpenStack Neutron to the network engineer’s language. I would respond to that by saying OpenStack Neutron wasn’t built to manage a physical network. Operating Systems/Applications.
