“Proprietary is not a word in our dictionary,” said Andy Bechtolsheim, founder, chief development officer, and chairman at Arista.
The project is housed in the Linux Foundation and is a standardized way for managing the flow of metadata between different big data technologies and vendor platforms.
Dell said edge products and services represent a massive opportunity, and VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger outlined his company’s telco strategy.
In addition to scooping up a cloud-monitoring startup and developing an edge strategy VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger took some time to get a new tattoo before VMworld.
Introduction Traditionally, Data Centers used lots of Layer 2 links that spanned entire racks, rows, cages, floors, for as far as the eye could see. These large L2 domains were not ideal for a data center, due to the slow convergence, unnecessary broadcasts, and difficulty in administering. To optimize the data center network, we needed […]

The Lavelle Networks SD-WAN software appliance sits within an NFV container in a Microsoft Windows environment for greater control and enhanced network management.
Warning: in this post, I am going to cross a little into philosophy, governance, and other odd subjects. Here there be dragons. Let me begin by setting the stage:
And the very helpful diagram which accompanies the quote—
The point Todd Hoff, the author makes, is that five years ago he believed the decentralized model would win, in terms of the way the Internet is structured. However, today he doesn’t believe this; centralization is winning. Two points worth considering before jumping into a more general discussion.
First, the decentralized model is almost always the most efficient in almost every respect. It is the model with the lowest signal-to-noise ratio, and the model with the highest gain. The simplest way to explain this is to note the primary costs in a network is the cost of connectivity, and the primary gain is the amount of support connections provide. The distributed model offers the best balance of these two.
Second, what we are generally talking about here Continue reading

When we think of hacking, we often picture a grim fellow opening a laptop, typing really fast and bam! he’s infiltrated the Pentagon. Watching those films when you know one or two things about system and network security is a hilarious experience! If you have been following the Certified Ethical Hacker series, you would know better by now. Hacking is not for the faint-hearted, not just because of the technical difficulty (indeed there are several needed skills to be developed), but because of the resilience needed. I’m talking about the fact that a successful hack comes after many failed attempts in most scenarios.
Because hacking into systems as an outsider is so difficult there’s a key toolkit that every hacker needs to master as much as they master sniffing, session hijacking, application hacking, or any other technical specialty- I’m talking about Social Engineering.
A highly empathetic person might have a hard time with the concept of Social Engineering. It’s pretty Continue reading

Internet Australia and the Internet Society are pleased to invite you to watch the recording of an Experts Session on Encryption on 20 August 2018 at Parliament House, Canberra, Australia.
Encryption technologies enable Internet users to protect the integrity and the confidentiality of their data and communications. From limiting the impact of data breaches, to securing financial transactions, to keeping messages private, encryption is an essential tool for digital security. As a technical foundation for trust on the Internet, encryption promotes commerce, privacy, and user trust, and helps protect data and communications from bad actors.
During the session, international and local experts from across the field discussed the technical aspects of encryption and digital security. They explained how encryption is used to secure communications and data, and explored its role in the Australian digital economy. Experts also discussed the risks associated with attempting to provide exceptional access to encrypted systems.
