10 Networking Startups To Watch In 2017
Check out these new vendors that aim to make a mark in networking.
Promoting cloud in a risk-averse organization
Our organization, like most large public bodies, is locked into formal bureaucratic procedures and, by general standards, is highly risk-averse. In addition, like other organizations of the United Nations System, it has a unique attribute which makes moving to the cloud a much greater leap than for most other organizations: UN System organizations enjoy a special status.
In the aftermath of World War II, countries negotiating the Charter for the future United Nations agreed the organization should be in a position to function without interference from any single Member State. For this reason, a regime of privileges and immunities was developed. It is this special legal regime that ensures UN organizations are immune from the jurisdiction of national courts, that their premises cannot be entered by national enforcement agencies without their consent, and that their archives – including their data – cannot be accessed without their agreement.

Webinars
2015 was year of SDN, 2016 was year of network automation, and 2017 is shaping up to be the year of the cloud.

A fairly common question I get asked when talking to people about Aerohive Networks is “what makes us different?” In other words, why should they choose Aerohive to replace their existing wireless vendor? It is a fair question. After all, plenty of vendors sell APs that can serve the most basic wireless needs. All of the vendors I compete with do a lot of the same things when it comes to general wireless.
One of the things I like to talk to potential customers about is Aerohive’s Private Pre-Shared Key(PPSK) technology. For some organizations, PPSK is not something they are interested in. Maybe they already have a pretty solid 802.1X implementation and don’t have a need for WPA2 Personal(pre-shared key) security on their wireless network. That’s perfectly fine in my book. I have other things I can always talk about with regard to an Aerohive solution. For quite a few organizations though, they see the advantage of PPSK over standard pre-shared key implementations and jump right in to using it. I wanted to briefly discuss what PPSK is and how it can be utilized with an Aerohive solution. No configuration screenshots or long demonstration videos. Just a basic Continue reading
General – Happy New Year!
Happy new year to all the readers of the blog!
I’ve been lacking the time to update the blog lately which I’m sorry for. Work is keeping me busy with some interesting projects. I hope to get a bit more frequent with the updates and maybe do smaller posts than my traditional larger ones.
For 2017 I’m going to focus on a few different areas to stay sharp and broaden my skillset a bit.
Wireless – I haven’t worked much with wireless and I’m going to upskill in this area to be able to understand the wireless requirements better when designing enterprise networks.
Datacenter – There are a lot of DC projects right now. Many companies are at the end of their Catalyst 6500 lifecycle and are looking for new solutions in the datacenter. Cisco’s Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) is a hot topic right now. I’ll probably be working more on DC projects and ACI in 2017.
Python – In my role as a network architect I don’t really have the need to do a lot of programming but I want to keep the brain sharp and know the basics of Python. I can use it to automate boring things Continue reading
