Power9, GPUs, FPGAs will have a profound effect on the data center

Last week brought us, in my opinion some of the biggest news that I’ve read recently. In a nutshell the news was that Google is working with Rackspace and IBM and that they have created an OpenPower Foundation. In a nutshell, they’re collaborating on open hardware designs based on the Power9 architecture from IBM and, at […]

cPacket Provides Distributed, Line-Rate, Real-Time Packet Analysis

The core cPacket value proposition is that of deep packet inspection and analysis at line rate in a scalable, distributed manner. Rather than merely directing traffic to various tools for analysis by creating a visibility fabric, cPacket handles both the functions of visibility fabrics as well as traffic analysis tools.

Savvius Insight Review

Recently, I had the opportunity to evaluate a Savvius Insight appliance. Like most freelance network professionals, much of my interaction with my clients’ networks is remote. This leaves me with fewer options for network analysis and troubleshooting, so I jumped at the chance to look at something that might fill that gap. The Hardware The appliance […]

Ethernet Roadmap 2016 – Ethernet Alliance

The IEEE 802.3 committee isn’t very good at getting standards work completed so there is a pre-standards body called the Ethernet Alliance. Its like a “pre-meeting meeting” (yes, we have all had those) for Ethernet standards where vendors thrash out most of the obvious stuff so that the committee has less work to consider and, theoretically, should […]
