Cisco releases Cloud Native SD-WAN solution for Kubernetes
Cisco has introduced an open-source project that it says could go a long way toward reducing the manual work involved in optimizing performance of Kubernetes-applications across SD-WANs (announced at KubeCon Europe 2020) Cisco said it launched the Cloud-Native SD-WAN (CN-WAN) project to show how Kubernetes applications can be automatically mapped to SD-WAN with the result…
Containerized script to test Youtube API in node
How did I come up with a post title like this? bare with me for a few more seconds in this introduction. I am IT pro, not a Dev. Then, when I tried to test some youtube APIs to start doing some automation. Well, my first issue was. How can I test my API credentials…
Introduction to BGP and cloud networking
This post is intended for people that is just entering to BGP and cloud networking (i.e. SDN). We’ll bring an introduction to BGP fundamental concepts. BGP is fundamental for SDN to scale out large networks in the Datacenter for end-points attached to containers and virtual servers. Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Let’s start saying that BGP…
Introduction to QoS and Cloud Networking
Relevant technologies like DPDK or SmartNICs are starting to come up lately to bring better performance options to CNF/VNF instances. Sharing a Linux kernel among other applications, is not good enough for some network functions. However, there are still other options before considering replacing your hardware. Quality of Service or QoS could be the cheapest…
Keep using Layer-2 services with EVPN
Let’s say you need a more scalable layer-2 solution for your VMs and containers. You can do some Linux bridges or maybe use OVS and try some VxLAN/GRE encapsulation between Hypervisors. Containers is a different kind of animal though: Way more end-points in every server and we put them across the datacenter, it could turn…
Install Windows 2012R2 in KVM
Not a fan of windows. Some app requires windows though. We figured (after some google search) to install Windows 2012R2 in KVM loading the virtio drives from a cdrom iso over the setup process. 1. First of all you need to have the iso media (cdrom) and download it at your KVM (i.e. evaluation version…
ansible and python pexpect for unconventional ssh interfaces
I’ve been working a lot with ansible over the last months. When you need to deal with some appliances using unconventional ssh interfaces. Well, It’s been quite a challenge. Then, I started to create my own python tool for those cases. The victim in this opportunity is VSC (Nuage Virtualized Services Controller), that’s a control…
