Latest Podcast D2C227: Platforms Reduce Cognitive Overhead

Today's Day Two Cloud explores platform engineering. We talk about how to balance the needs of infrastructure engineers and developers, how to shift to a delivery model, and how to account for human personalities and operational processes in your platform. Tools and tech are essential, but you also have to consider and incorporate the non-tech stuff.

New Podcast on HN718: Prisma SASE Gets Clever With TCP For Better App And User Experiences (Sponsored)

Remote and hybrid work means network engineers have to grapple with lossy residential networks such as home wireless that your work-from-home folks are using to access company resources. Their Wi-Fi sucks, and so their use of corporate resources sucks. Sure, you’ve got them plumbed into a SASE fabric, but that doesn’t fix their user experience... Read more »

Today on Heavy Networking we talk with sponsor Palo Alto Networks about network tech in its Prisma SASE offering that can help with the lossy home networks in ways that CDNs and adding new PoPs won’t fix. We'll dive into different approaches to WAN and TCP optimization, plus a couple of other uniq...

IPB143: Are We Stuck With Dual-Stack Forever?

These days, most network devices can speak both IPv4 and IPv6. A dual-stack approach can smooth the transition from one protocol to the other because organizations can get comfortable with IPv6 without having to make a hard cutover. However, they may get so comfortable that they never fully commit. In this episode Ed, Scott, and... Read more »

NB463: Cisco Buys eBPF Startup For Cloud-Native Networking; Garter Forecasts $5 Trillion In IT Spending

This week’s Network Break examines why Cisco bought eBPF startup Isovalent (hint: it’s about cloud-native networking), why Broadcom is cranking up pressure on VMware resellers and customers (hint: it’s about money), and why Google Cloud is sort of dropping fees for customers who want to exit the cloud (hint: it’s about getting out ahead of...

New Podcast on HN717: Network Source(s) Of Truth – A Roundtable Discussion

On today’s episode, we discuss networking sources of truth. That’s right, sources of truth, because you’re likely to have more than one depending on your environment and your point of view. On LinkedIn, Ethan quoted someone at the AutoCon0 conference who essentially said that the network itself shouldn’t be used as a source of truth.... Read more »

On today's show we've assembled a group of network pros to examine what we mean by network sources of truth (there's more than one for sure), how those sources of truth tie into automation efforts, and how to narrow the gap between an operator's intended state of the network vs. how it actually is.
