We are excited to announce that the Ansible Automation Platform 2 release includes private automation hub 4.3. Private automation hub provides automation developers the ability to collaborate and publish their own automation content and streamline delivery of Ansible code within their organization.
Private automation hub in Ansible Automation Platform 2 primarily delivers support for automation execution environments. Execution environments are a standardized way to define, build and distribute the environments that the automation runs in. In a nutshell, automation execution environments are container images that allow for easier administration of Ansible by the platform administrator. If you are unfamiliar with execution environments, please refer to this blog written by Technical Marketing manager Anshul Behl.
Private automation hub will serve as the on-premises execution environment container image repository for customers who wish to use this feature, aimed at customers who run the platform on physical or virtual environments. Ansible Automation Platform will seamlessly integrate with private automation hub for publishing and pulling execution environment container images.
Private automation hub is intended for curating automation content from creators and making it seamlessly accessible to operators. It makes it easy to share these execution environments, which make Continue reading
The power and potential of the next generation cognitive campus are transformative as the industry undergoes a massive transition to hybrid work in the post-pandemic era. A key underpinning to successful campus networking deployments has been our very first acquisition of Mojo Networks for cognitive Wi-Fi. Arista’s entry into wireless is only in its third year, yet the advances in this space will be profound over the next decade.
We are excited to announce that Enterprise customers now have the ability to test custom uploaded certificates in a staging environment before pushing them to production.
If you’re running a website or the API that’s behind a popular app, you know your users have high expectations: it can't just be up and running; it also has to be fast and secure. One of the easiest and most standardized ways to secure connections is with the TLS protocol. To do that, you need to acquire a TLS certificate for your domain.
One way to get a certificate is by using a CDN provider, like Cloudflare. We make the process really easy by issuing certificates on your behalf. Not just that, but when your certificate is getting closer to its expiration date, we are responsible for re-issuing it. But, if you don’t want Cloudflare to issue the certificate on your behalf and want to obtain the certificate yourself, you can do so. You can either keep control of your private key, or generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) through Cloudflare, so we maintain the private key, but you can still use the certificate authority (CA) of Continue reading
Etienne-Victor Depasquale sent me a pointer to an interesting NANOG discussion: why would we need Segment Routing. It’s well worth reading the whole thread (until it devolves into “that is not how MPLS works” arguments), which happens to be somewhat aligned with my thinking:
Enjoy!

You would have to look far and wide to find a tougher business to be in than chip manufacturing, which is why the many dozens of server makers who used to make their own CPUs – often multiple types – no longer run their own foundries and, with the exception of IBM and now Amazon Web Services, no longer exist. …

The year 2020 has been a rough ride. A lot of companies went out of business and a lot of people lost their jobs. However the job market is continuously evolving and it is still very competitive even after taking a hit during the pandemic. Technology is changing the way that employers find employees and employees find employers.
Employers are always looking for creative, efficient, innovative and empathetic individuals who are productive and can help in creating a better workplace for everyone. Employees will be looking for organizations who have a clear mission statement and are able to provide them with structure, clarity and meaning in their work.

Job seekers also need to make sure that they are on top of new developments in the industry and keep their LinkedIn Continue reading

Amazon EKS Anywhere is an official Kubernetes distribution from AWS. It’s a new deployment option for Amazon EKS that allows the creation and operation of on-premises Kubernetes clusters on your existing infrastructure.
Since its general availability release, we’ve been working hard to ensure support for Calico on EKS Anywhere, and are happy to announce that users can now choose to use Calico for container networking and security. This gives organizations already using or planning to adopt EKS Anywhere the flexibility to choose the best container networking solution for their needs. Organizations currently using Calico can add EKS Anywhere clusters and use the same Calico solution for networking and security across on-premises and cloud platforms.
Let’s take a look at how you can get started with Calico on EKS Anywhere.
Notes:
Install EKS Anywhere as normal on vSphere, by following this documentation.
