Dell's IoT Division will develop products and incorporate AI and machine learning.
One of the reasons we have written so much about Chinese search and social web giant, Baidu, in the last few years is because they have openly described both the hardware and software steps to making deep learning efficient and high performance at scale.
In addition to providing several benchmarking efforts and GPU use cases, researchers at the company’s Silicon Valley AI Lab (SVAIL) have been at the forefront of eking power efficiency and performance out of new hardware by lowering precision. This is a trend that has kickstarted similar thinking in hardware usage in other areas, including supercomputing …

Thanks to all who joined us for the Dell EMC Webinar: SDN: The Foundation for Software-Defined Storage. During the webinar Dell EMC discussed benefits of software defined networking for SDS solutions. After the webinar, we took questions from the audience.

The organization's move adds to the growing push for simplifying container deployments.
Someone is going to commercialize a general purpose, universal quantum computer first, and Intel wants to be the first. So does Google. So does IBM. And D-Wave is pretty sure it already has done this, even if many academics and a slew of upstart competitors don’t agree. What we can all agree on is that there is a very long road ahead in the development of quantum computing, and it will be a costly endeavor that could nonetheless help solve some intractable problems.
This week, Intel showed off the handiwork its engineers and those of partner QuTech, a …

iTerm2 is a great terminal for MacOS; far better than Apple’s built-in Terminal app, and it’s my #1 recommendation for Mac-based network engineers. One of the many reasons I like it is that it has a feature that solves a really annoying problem.
It’s tedious having to issue a command repeatedly so that you can see when and if the output changes. I’ve had to do this in the past, repeating commands like show ip arp so that I can spot when an entry times out and when it it refreshes. The repeated sequence of up arrow, Enter, up arrow, Enter, up arrow, Enter
drives me mad.
Some vendors offer assistance; A10 Networks for example has a repeat
command in the CLI specifically to help with show commands:
a10-vMaster[2/2]#repeat 5 show arp Total arp entries: 25 Age time: 300 secs IP Address MAC Address Type Age Interface Vlan --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10.1.1.65 0000.5e00.01a1 Dynamic 17 Management 1 10.1.1.67 ac4b.c821.57d1 Dynamic 255 Management 1 10.1.1.97 001f.a0f8.d901 Dynamic 22 Management 1 Refreshing command every 5 seconds. (press ^C to quit) Elapsed Time: 00:00:00 Total arp entries: 25 Age time: Continue reading

Second vendor in this year’s series of data center switching updates: Brocade.
Not much has happened on this front since last year’s update. There was a maintenance release of Brocade NOS, they launched SLX series of switches, but those are so new that the software documentation didn’t have time to make it to the usual place (document library for individual switch models), it's here.
In any case, the updated videos (including edited 2016 content which describes IP Fabric in great details) are online. You can access them if you bought the webinar recording in the past or if you have an active ipSpace.net subscription.
The CNAME resource record was defined in RFC 1035 as “the canonical name for an alias.” It plays the role of a pointer, for example, the CNAME informs the requestor that www.containercult.com is really this other name, instance001.couldbalancer.example.com.
The CNAME record provides a “configure once” point of integration for third party platforms and services. A CNAME is often used as opposed to an A/AAAA record for the same reason developers often use variables in their code as opposed to hard coded values. The CNAME can easily be redefined by the third party or service provider without requiring the end user to make any changes.
A stipulation that prevents use of the CNAME at the apex is that no other records can exist at or alongside a CNAME. This specification is what prevents an end user from being able to place a CNAME at the apex of their zone due to the other records, which must be defined at the apex such as the Start of Authority (SOA).
ALIAS / ANAME – The way of the future
The Oracle ALIAS record allows for CNAME-like functionality at the apex of a zone. The Oracle implementation of the Continue reading
