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.”

If you’re new to this process, let me break this down for you: When you first log in to your cloud services provider console, you have to configure a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), which requires networking knowledge. Configure auto-scaling with load balancers. Install software packages. Set up a webserver to serve requests.

Networking. Want to understand kube-proxy , a key part of Kubernetes networking, a bit better? Xavier Avrillier walks readers through using Antrea (a Kubernetes CNI built on top of Open vSwitch—a topic I’ve touched on a time or two) to provide on-premise load balancing in Kubernetes. Start here.

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.).

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.

With the rapid development of modern web APIs, developers must balance quality, reliability and security with time to market. This means that there are any number of unknown issues of unknown severity hidden in every API that may lead to benign errors, or at worse, serious security holes. Another tool in this space is OWASP ZAP.

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. Now, on to the content!

Rather than relying on a single machine, distributed learning harnesses the collective computational power of a network of machines or nodes. Distributed learning leverages the power of multiple machines or nodes connected through a network to train machine learning models in a distributed manner.
