Today our partner IBM® announced the general availability of Cloud Internet Services (CIS) Enterprise. It marks a significant step forward in the partnership that we announced at the IBM THINK event in March.
CIS delivers security and performance to IBM Cloud® customers’ internet applications. It brings together Cloudflare’s 150+ points of presence with IBM Cloud’s 60 data centers, stopping attacks before they can even reach the IBM Cloud. CIS Enterprise is integrated into IBM Cloud, allowing IBM Cloud customers to set up and manage Cloudflare’s DDoS mitigation, web application firewall, smart routing and highly customizable load balancer, all from within the IBM Cloud user interface.

We thought it timely to give a refresher on how Cloudflare’s network supports IBM Cloud customers. The network is designed to meet requirements of the most demanding enterprise customers. It is based on an architecture that differentiates it from legacy CDN, DNS and DDoS-mitigation services to ensure that internet applications stay online, even in the face of extremely high volume attacks or legitimate traffic spikes.
Cloudflare’s network of data centers, distributed across 74 countries (including 22 in China), has a network Continue reading
This new research increases predictions made by IHS in May as the cloud services market has seen steady growth in existing regions and big growth in developing regions.
CFO Matt Ellis said there have been no surprises so far in the company’s four-market pre-standard 5G fixed wireless launch.
The vendor is working with Red Hat on a plug-in to link CloudFabric to Red Hat’s OpenShift Container Platform.
The Internet has become the world’s most powerful tool for commerce, communication, and innovation because of a commitment from its stakeholders to work collaboratively to make it highly performant and more secure.
At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, we take that commitment to a better Internet seriously and want to align ourselves with other organizations that share a similar vision. That is why I am so proud to announce our partnership with the Internet Society, a global non-profit organization dedicated to the open development, evolution and use of the Internet.
I have spoken previously about how highly I regard the Internet Society’s new CEO, Andrew Sullivan, but my admiration for the work being done extends throughout the organization. This is why it is important to me that our relationship with the Internet Society is more than ceremonial. We want to roll up our sleeves and get to work because there is much work to be done.
One area we feel we can help is in security. The Internet is a trust-based network of networks and it’s consistently under attack by bad actors. We believe there is simply greater strength in the collaboration of the good guys and gals. Security is a Continue reading
The company's new cloud architecture features "impenetrable barriers" that block threats and autonomous robots that find threats and kill them, said CTO Larry Ellison.

Why 400G Ethernet? In one sentence, because the easiest way to go faster is to go faster.
Over time, Ethernet speed transitions have been the primary driver for improving both the throughput and price-performance of datacenter networks. 400G Ethernet is the next major transition on this journey. While 100G Ethernet is still ramping up rapidly this year and next, it is projected that by the end of 2021 400G Ethernet will represent the majority of Ethernet bandwidth shipped.
Arista is predicting that 400G volumes will be relatively low in 2019. But the company cites Dell’Oro research that predicts 400G to grow dramatically beginning in 2020.
IT staffers are supporting AI initiatives, but they often don't have the hardware resources those projects really need.
