The flexibility of cloud infrastructure has had a significant impact on the way that organizations build out their infrastructure, but the industry is continuing to learn just how complicated connecting to cloud resources can be. In this episode of Network Collective we take a look at the challenges around cloud connectivity and talk about some ways to do it well.

Energy is not free, not even to energy companies, and so they are just as concerned with being efficient with their supercomputers as the most penny pinching hyperscaler or cloud builder where the computing is the product.
Like the other major oil and gas producers on Earth, the last few years have not been easy ones for Ente Nazionale Idrocarburi, the Italian energy major that employs 33,000 people and operates in 76 countries worldwide and now has the distinction of having the most powerful supercomputer in the energy sector – and indeed, among all kinds of commercial entities in the …

A while back I posted on section 10 routing loops; Daniel responded to the post with this comment:
I am curious how these things are discovered. You said that this is a contrived example, but I assume researchers have some sort of methodology to discover issues like this. I am sure some things have been found through operational mishap, but is there some “standardized” way of testing graph logic for the possibility of loops? I trust this is much easier to do today than even a decade ago.
You would think there would be some organized way to discover these kinds of routing loops, something every researcher and/or protocol designer might follow. The reality is far different—there is no systematic way that I know of to find this sort of problem. What happens, in real life, is that people with a lot of experience at the intersection of protocol design, the bounds of different ways of finding loop free paths (solving the loop free path problem), and a lot of experience in deploying and operating a network using these protocols, will figure these things out because they know enough about the solution space to look for them in the first Continue reading

In remembrance of Internet Pioneer, founder and Chair of RIPE for 25 years, Postel Award recipient, and friend, Rob Blokzijl the RIPE NCC set up the “Rob Blokzijl Foundation”. The foundation recognises those who made substantial and sustained technical and operational contributions to the development of the Internet in the RIPE NCC service region, or supported or enabled others with the development of the Internet in the RIPE NCC service region.
The Rob Blokzijl Award will be awarded for the first time during RIPE 76 in May 2018. This is a Good Thing on so many levels.
The call for nominations is now open. The deadline is 16 March 2018 23:59 UTC.

The startup spun out of the U.S. National Security Agency.
Not all systems require full patching for the flaws right now, anyway, experts say.
It would be interesting to find out how many recent college graduates in electronics engineering, computer science, or related fields expect to roll out their own silicon startup in the next five years compared to similar polls from ten or even twenty years ago. Our guess is that only a select few now would even consider the possibility in the near term.
The complexity of chip designs is growing, which means higher design costs, which thus limits the number of startups that can make a foray into the market. Estimates vary, but bringing a new chip to market can cost …
