Apple ARM Mac rumors
The latest rumor is that Apple is going to announce Macintoshes based on ARM processors at their developer conference. I thought I'd write up some perspectives on this.It's different this time
This would be Apple's fourth transition. Their original Macintoshes in 1984 used Motorola 68000 microprocessors. They moved to IBM's PowerPC in 1994, then to Intel's x86 in 2005.
However, this history is almost certainly the wrong way to look at the situation. In those days, Apple had little choice. Each transition happened because the processor they were using was failing to keep up with technological change. They had no choice but to move to a new processor.
This no longer applies. Intel's x86 is competitive on both speed and power efficiency. It's not going away. If Apple transitions away from x86, they'll still be competing against x86-based computers.
Other companies have chosen to adopt both x86 and ARM, rather than one or the other. Microsoft's "Surface Pro" laptops come in either x86 or ARM versions. Amazon's AWS cloud servers come in either x86 or ARM versions. Google's Chromebooks come in either x86 or ARM versions.
Instead of ARM replacing x86, Apple may be attempting to provide both as Continue reading
Introducing Cache Analytics
Today, I’m delighted to announce Cache Analytics: a new tool that gives deeper exploration capabilities into what Cloudflare’s caching and content delivery services are doing for your web presence.
Caching is the most effective way to improve the performance and economics of serving your website to the world. Unsurprisingly, customers consistently ask us how they can optimize their cache performance to get the most out of Cloudflare.
With Cache Analytics, it’s easier than ever to learn how to speed up your website, and reduce traffic sent to your origin. Some of my favorite capabilities include:
- See what resources are missing from cache, expired, or never eligible for cache in the first place
- Slice and dice your data as you see fit: filter by hostnames, or see a list of top URLs that miss cache
- Switch between views of requests and data Transfer to understand both performance and cost
Cache Analytics is available today for all customers on our Pro, Business, and Enterprise plans.
In this blog post, I’ll explain why we built Cache Analytics and how you can get the most out of it.
Why do we need analytics focused on caching?
If you want Continue reading

How to Develop Inside a Container Using Visual Studio Code Remote Containers
This is a guest post from Jochen Zehnder. Jochen is a Docker Community Leader and working as a Site Reliability Engineer for 56K.Cloud. He started his career as a Software Developer, where he learned the ins and outs of creating software. He is not only focused on development but also on the automation to bridge the gap to the operations side. At 56K.Cloud he helps companies to adapt technologies and concepts like Cloud, Containers, and DevOps. 56K.Cloud is a Technology company from Switzerland focusing on Automation, IoT, Containerization, and DevOps.
Jochen Zehnder joined 56K.Cloud in February, after working as a software developer for several years. He always tries to make the lives easier for everybody involved in the development process. One VS Code feature that excels at this is the Visual Studio Code Remote – Containers extension. It is one of many extensions of the Visual Studio Remote Development feature.
This post is based on the work Jochen did for the 56K.Cloud internal handbook. It uses Jekyll to generate a static website out of markdown files. This is a perfect example of how to make lives easier for everybody. Nobody should know how to install, Continue reading

Cumulus Networks’ President and Chief Product Officer, Partho Mishra, on the NVIDIA-Cumulus acquisition.
With the acquisition of Cumulus Networks and Mellanox by NVIDIA, there have been a lot of questions regarding the strategic focus of the new networking business unit at NVIDIA and the future of the open networking approach that Cumulus Networks pioneered.
The open networking journey continues
Mellanox and Cumulus are absolutely committed to open networking and allowing our customers to pick best-of-breed solutions. Cumulus will continue to support all of the hardware platforms on our Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) and to add new hardware platforms from multiple hardware partners to the HCL. Mellanox already offers multiple Network-Operating-Systems — ONYX, SONIC, Cumulus Linux – to customers and this continues unchanged. In terms of total code commits to open source projects, such as FRR, SONIC and the Linux networking kernel, Cumulus+Mellanox have contributed very heavily in the past and will continue to do so in the future. This is an integral part of our DNA.
Check out the latest episode of Kernel of Truth to hear me and Amit Katz discuss more about the future of open networking including how SONIC and Cumulus Linux will work together, what happens to open “campus” networking and the next generation of in-band telemetry.

Using kubectl via an SSH Tunnel
In this post, I’d like to share one way (not the only way!) to use kubectl to access your Kubernetes cluster via an SSH tunnel. In the future, I may explore some other ways (hit me on Twitter if you’re interested). I’m sharing this information because I suspect it is not uncommon for folks deploying Kubernetes on the public cloud to want to deploy them in a way that does not expose them to the Internet. Given that the use of SSH bastion hosts is not uncommon, it seemed reasonable to show how one could use an SSH tunnel to reach a Kubernetes cluster behind an SSH bastion host.
If you’re unfamiliar with SSH bastion hosts, see this post for an overview.
To use kubectl via an SSH tunnel through a bastion host to a Kubernetes cluster, there are two steps required:
- The Kubernetes API server needs an appropriate Subject Alternative Name (SAN) on its certificate.
- The Kubeconfig file needs to be updated to reflect the tunnel details.
Ensuring an Appropriate SAN for the API Server
As is the case with just about any TLS-secured connection, if the destination to which you’re connecting with kubectl doesn’t match any of Continue reading
