Based on what we know about Space Networks like Starlink, I propose that next generation cars won't use 5G. Its doesn't make sense to deal with telcos.

Software Defined Infrastrcture has changed the way we operate networks but little impact on the process of design or decision making. Doing the same old thing better isn't enough, enter Data Driven Infrastructure.

The growing complexity of IT environments make it harder for SecOps teams to keep pace with developers, manage access to resources, and ensure that the right controls are in place and policies are met. Sponsor Tufin joins the Heavy Networking podcast to discuss how automation can boost SecOps effectiveness while tackling initiatives such as zero trust and network segmentation on premises and in the cloud.

Packet Pushers has a podcast channel, Briefings in Brief, dedicated to shorter shows that focus on a single topic. It struck me that I haven’t mentioned it here. In this Brief I’m highlighting the lack of interoperability between clouds. When thinking more deeply, I realised that there is an aggressive lack of co-operation between cloud […]

Streaming telemetry is an essential element in a network automation framework. On today's Heavy Networking, sponsor Juniper Networks joins the podcast to discuss how telemetry differs from traditional monitoring such as SNMP, how telemetry informs and enhances automation, and how to consume telemetry to make it actionable without overwhelming network operators (or your collectors). Our guest is Javier Antich from Juniper's Automation Software team.

BBR is a congestion control algorithm (CCA) that's growing in use on the Internet. However, a design element in BBR starves competing CCAs for bandwidth on shared links, allowing BBR to consume more than its fair share. On today's Heavy Networking we speak with researchers at Carnegie Mellon University who have measured BBR's unfairness. We discuss the research, learn how BBR differs from legacy algorithms such as Cubic and Reno, and explore impacts to the Internet. Our guests are Ranysha Ware, Ph.D. student; and Justine Sherry, Associate Professor of Computer Science.

Keysight took a different approach to this Tech Field Day briefing and spent a lot of time talking about the current state of networking threats and the events that you are protecting against. If you aren’t aware from what your network security is doing, its an good presentation for that. Keysight has many […]
