Hey, it's HighScalability time:
Do you like this sort of Stuff? Please lend me your support on Patreon. It would mean a great deal to me. And if you know anyone looking for a simple book that uses lots of pictures and lots of examples to explain the cloud, then please recommend my new book: Explain the Cloud Like I'm 10. They'll love you even more.
In April of 2017 we announced the Modernize Traditional Applications (MTA) program at Docker. The goal of MTA is to take the vast back catalogs of existing applications that are running in enterprise organizations today, and bring them to a modern container platform, without requiring extensive rewrites or refactoring. I’m excited to share part of our learning from the MTA program and announce the release of Docker Application Guides.
Oracle WebLogic MedRec Sample Application on Docker Enterprise Edition
Docker Application Guides demonstrate how to deploy popular enterprise applications – Oracle WebLogic and IBM MQ with WebSphere Liberty – on Docker Enterprise and Docker Desktop. Application Guides include example architectures and guidance for selecting Certified Docker container images from Docker Store and deploying a prototype application, orchestrated by Docker Swarm or Kubernetes.
It is important to note that Docker Application Guides are one piece of our prescriptive Docker customer journey to production. In addition to the knowledge transfer and process transformation that come with our full approach, Application Guides provide a reference for deploying common enterprise applications on the Docker Enterprise platform.
The first Docker Application Guides are designed to help you plan and deploy an Oracle WebLogic application Continue reading
Intent based and orchestrated networks are the prevailing trend in the industry but is that necessarily a good thing? In this Network Collective Short Take, Russ White takes a look at the impact of removing the operator from network operations.

Today, we talk to network architect Andrey Khomyakov, who s helped his organization make the transition from traditional to open networking in production.
What s it like to disaggregate switch hardware from network operating system? Was it hard? Does it really work? What s support like? Was any money saved? Will I get fired for suggesting my company go the open networking route? Andrey will answer these and more questions.
Pete Lumbis, long time friend of the Packet Pushers and contributor to the networking community, also joins with some of his insights learned in his role at Cumulus Networks. This is not a sponsored show. We just want to share the real-world experience of going new-school disaggregation with your networking.
We’ll look at the distinctions between open networking, disaggregation, and whitebox. We’ll also look at day-to-day operations with whitebox, common problems, how to choose a whitebox, and more.

By bringing broadband to new areas, community networks can help end discrimination, fight climate change, and feed the hungry of the world, says a report newly available as an ebook.
Community networks can help the United Nations achieve its Sustainable Development Goals, including an end to poverty and universal clean water, by bringing Internet service, and along with it, investment into areas not yet covered, says the report, Community Networks: the Internet by the People, for the People.
For the U.N. to reach its Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, nations and organizations will need to spend approximately US$1 trillion, noted Kathryn Brown, president and CEO of the Internet Society and a coauthor for the report.
While the goals are ambitious, they can be accomplished, with help from Internet access, Brown wrote in the report. “The Internet itself is an enabler for the goals,” she said. “We will be able to get there faster and in a way that lasts, if everyone can access the Internet and benefit from it.”
The report, available online since December, was recently released as a ebook on Amazon.com as a way to more widely distribute it. Supported by the Internet Society, Continue reading
I’ve been at Networking Field Day this week, and as always the conversations have been great and focused around a variety of networking topics. One that keeps jumping out at me is network analytics. There’s a few things that have come up that were especially interesting to me:
Edge computing combines the speed of content delivery networks with the benefits of cloud to enable a new generation of networking.
There’s just the couple of sessions to highlight on the last day of IETF 102 before we wrap up for the week.
V6OPS continues at 09.30 EDT/UTC-4 where it left off on Thursday afternoon. On the agenda are drafts relating to Multi-Addressing Considerations for IPv6 Prefix Delegation which considers prefix delegation considerations for both classic routing and various multi-addressing use cases; whilst IP over Ethernet (IPoE) Session Health Checking describes a mechanism for IP over Ethernet clients to achieve connectivity validation using PPP-style keepalives such as BFD Echo, or ARP and Neighbor Discovery functions.
The remaining draft proposes a method for Discovering Provisioning Domain Names and Data, which describes a way for hosts accessing the Internet via multiple interfaces and with possible multiple IPv6 prefixes, to identify themselves using Fully Qualified Domains as Provisioning Domain identifiers.
NOTE: If you are unable to attend IETF 102 in person, there are multiple ways to participate remotely.
The final session starting 11.50 EDT/UTC-4 includes IDR. This has been working on (amongst other things) the issue of route leaks, and is trying to pull together different conflicting approaches towards mitigation of these in favour of a more complementary approach. This work includes two drafts Continue reading

Cloud First Networking – the challenge of networking in multiple clouds is substantial How can we make on-prem look like the public cloud. Don’t make AWS look like a on-prem network, make an off-prem network look like an on-prem network. Instead of configuring VRFs and VLANs, we should be configuring the public cloud equivalent of […]
