During my interview with David Bombal I made a recommendation I find crucial for anyone serious about blogging:
Make sure you own your content.
There’s a simple reason for that rule: if you want to write quality content, you’ll have to invest a lot of time into it.
What Intel calls “cloud digestion” as the cause of the massive pullback in spending in its Data Center Group is looking more and more like a case of “Epyc indigestion” for Intel, not for the hyperscalers and cloud builders. …

QUIC is a middle-aged protocol at this point—it’s several years old, and widely deployed although TCP still dominates the transport layer of the Internet. In this episode of the Hedge, Jana Iyengar joins Alvaro Retana and Russ White to discuss the motivation for developing QUIC, and its ongoing development and deployment.
A young person scrolls through Instagram to see the latest updates on their favorite profiles. To many around the world this doesn’t seem strange, but for a hamlet outside of a small village in Indonesia’s rural southwest, it’s revolutionary. And it’s in part thanks to the work of an Internet entrepreneur named Gustaff Harriman Iskandar. […]

The cloud and the related edge already are rapidly influencing almost every aspect of IT, from the technology that is being adapted and created to how that technology is being consumed, as illustrated by the growing numbers of established hardware vendors – including Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Dell, and Cisco Systems – that now are offering more of their portfolio as services. …

Today on Day Two Cloud we get into a whole lot of things. For example, what is IT's value in the age of cloud? How can IT figure out what's actually providing value to the business vs. undifferentiated heavy lifting? How companies built on open-source software make their money? Our guest is Stu Miniman, Director of Market Insights at Red Hat.

TL&DR: If you want to test BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, or SR-MPLS in a virtual lab, you might build the lab faster with netsim-tools release 0.6.
In the netsim-tools release 0.6 I focused on adding routing protocol functionality:

The concept of VRFs is likely one that you’re familiar with. They are the de facto standard when we talk about isolating layer 3 networks. As we’ve talked about previously, they are used extensively in applications such as MPLS VPNs and really provide the foundation for layer 3 network isolation. They do this by allowing the creation of multiple routing tables. Any layer 3 construct can then be mapped into the VRF. For instance, I could assign an IP address to an interface and then map that interface into the VRF. Likewise, I could configure a static route and specify that the route is part of a given VRF. Going one step further I could establish a BGP session off of one of the VRF interfaces and receive remote BGP routes into the VRF. VRFs are to layer 3 like VLANs are to layer 2.
So while we’ve talked about how they are typically used and implemented on networking hardware like routers and switches – we haven’t talked about how they’re implemented in Linux. Actually – they’re fairly new to the Linux space. The functionality was actually written by Cumulus Networks and then contributed to the Linux kernel (kudos Continue reading
On today's Heavy Networking, sponsored by Palo Alto Networks, we examine what SASE means to you as a network engineer, its effects on how applications are protected and how you provide access to end users, and useful things to think about regarding how SASE services are provisioned and operated while you evaluate whether SASE is right for your org.
