You Still Need a Networking Engineer for a Successful Cloud Deployment

You’ve probably heard cloudy evangelists telling CIOs how they won’t need the infrastructure engineers once they move their workloads into a public cloud. As always, whatever sounds too good to be true usually is. Compute resources in public clouds still need to be managed, someone still needs to measure application performance, and backups won’t happen by themselves.

Even more important (for networking engineers), network requirements don’t change just because you decided to use someone else’s computers:

Automation Analytics: Part 2 – Looking at Data Collection

We recently released Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform which now includes multiple Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offerings, one of which is Automation Analytics.  This offering provides a visual dashboard, health notifications and organization statistics for your Ansible Automation. Automation Analytics works across multiple Ansible Tower clusters allowing holistic analytics across your entire automation infrastructure.

In a previous blog I wrote about Getting Started with Automation Analytics, but now want to expand on what data is collected and how to gain access to that data.  I highly recommend reading the previous blog if you are new to Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, Ansible Tower concepts and our SaaS offerings. This is important to many customers because they all have their own security concerns with what data leaves their premises as well as  obligations to their own customers and stakeholders to make sure data sent will not be compromised in any way.

The Week in Internet News: $1,200 a Month for Internet Service?

Gold-plated Internet access: Ulukhaktok, a small town in Canada’s Northwest Territories, is exploring ways to build its own broadband network after complaints of slow speeds and data caps, Vice.com reports. The price for exceeding the 10 GB data cap cost one resident $1,200 for the month. As part of the community-led effort, several residents have completed training on community networks with the Internet Society, which is supporting the project.

Editing ordered: Singapore’s government has ordered Facebook to “correct” a user’s post that contained accusations about the arrest of a supposed whistleblower and election rigging, in the first use of the country’s fake news law, Reuters says. The government called the allegations “false” and “scurrilous” and ordered blogger Alex Tan to issue a correction. But Tan does not live in Singapore and says he is an Australian citizen, and he refused to comply.

China joins in: Meanwhile, the Chinese government is targeting fake news and deep fake videos under new Internet content rules, Reuters reports. In addition, any use of AI or virtual reality needs to be clearly marked in a prominent manner in the government’s efforts against deep fakes. Failure to follow the rules could be considered a criminal Continue reading
