Bloomberg’s network engineers are using Apstra’s software to gain visibility across the network fabric supporting the building's media production systems.
This is a guest post by Ben Chartrand, who is a Development Manager at Timely. You can check out some of Ben's other Workers projects on his GitHub and his blog.
At Timely we started a project to migrate our web applications from legacy Azure services to a modern PaaS offering. In theory it meant no code changes.
We decided to start with our webhooks. All our endpoints can be grouped into four categories:
Despite their limited number, these are vitally important. We did a lot of testing but it was clear we’d only really know if everything was working once we had production traffic. How could we migrate traffic?
Change the CNAME to point to the new hosting infrastructure. This is high risk. DNS takes time to propagate so, if we needed to roll back, it would take time. We would also be shifting over everything at once.
Use a traffic manager to shift a percentage of traffic using Cloudflare Load Balancing. We could start at, say, 5% traffic to the new infrastructure Continue reading
The opening days of 2019 also saw Sophos purchase cloud security startup Avid Secure and Akamai Technologies reach a deal to acquire Janrain.
The work is part of its participation in the Blackberry and L-Spark Accelerator Program, a program building network performance management technologies for IoT.
Advanced Micro Devices, under the direction of its President and CEO Lisa Su, garnered some big headlines in 2018 for both its technology advances as well as its growing stock price.
“We just opened up every Lambda function to run on Knative,” said Mark Hinkle, co-founder of TriggerMesh. “That’s a huge ecosystem.”
Ericsson said last year that its "full-stack, pre-integrated" approach to BSS was not working and adopted a new strategy. More measures are now required to meet 2020 profitability targets.
Equinix’s software-defined interconnection platform now has 13,000 virtual connections, according to CEO Charles Meyers.
Lots of network monitoring platforms use GeoIP databases to track/monitor sources. These databases are, perhaps, 75% accurate (for some definition of accurate). This is your regular reminder to have a sense of caution about location based on public IP address. John S. and his mother Ann live in the house, which is in Pretoria, the […]

In 2019 SD-WAN solutions will converge toward a universal archetype.
I’m teaching a three hour webinar on network complexity on the 8th of February through Safari Books Online. This will likely be the last time I run this course over on the Safari side of things; I’m considering redoing it as a udemy course at some point, or something similar.

Like many people around the world, the Internet has contributed largely to the person I am today – building my knowledge base through access to a wealth of information. Without the Internet, a lot of things would not be as easy as they are right now.
As a recent graduate, I can relate to the fact that the Internet has been extremely helpful in aiding and improving student learning and research, as I can cite academic resources online and watch Continue reading
