Virtual Network Functions in VPC and Integration With Event Notifications in IBM Cloud

Dzone - DevOps

What Are Virtual Network Functions (VNFs)? Previously, proprietary hardware performed functions like routers, firewalls, load balancers, etc. These hardware functions are packaged as virtual machine images in a VNF. It allows service providers to run their networks on standard servers instead of proprietary ones.

Practical Steps for Enhancing Reliability in Cloud Networks - Part I

Kentik

When evaluating solutions, whether to internal problems or those of our customers, I like to keep the core metrics fairly simple: will this reduce costs, increase performance, or improve the network’s reliability? If a solution is cheap, it is probably not very performant or particularly reliable. Resiliency.

Using Device Telemetry to Answer Questions About Your Network Health

Kentik

For cloud network specialists, the landscape for their observability efforts includes a mix of physical and virtual networking devices. With so many network boundaries being navigated (application, service, cloud providers, subnets, SD-WANs , etc.), What is device telemetry? What is endpoint telemetry?
