ThousandEyes: Five Important Things You Need to Know
The complexity of the application landscape is continuing to change, segmenting the path from our users to our applications. Monitoring the performance of that landscape has become equally complex with the number of Application Performance Monitoring and Management (APM) tools growing by the year. A large part of that issue is the visibility in segments that we don't control. ThousandEyes offers options that largely haven't been available before, and that makes this product awesome and exciting. In this article, I'm going to provide five reasons why you should consider ThousandEyes.
Bridging Kubernetes, Cilium, & eBPF to Networking Concepts for Network Engineers
As cloud-native technologies continue to converge with traditional networking in the data center and enterprise, understanding how Kubernetes, Cilium and eBPF work is crucial for network engineers. Hybrid mesh firewalls are the latest trend, and distributed firewalls (like Cisco's Hypershield) are emerging in the market.
Bridging Kubernetes, Cilium & eBPF to Networking Concepts for Network Engineers: Part 2 Security
As cloud-native technologies continue to converge with traditional networking in the data center and enterprise, understanding how Kubernetes, Cilium and eBPF works is crucial for network engineers. With hybrid mesh firewalls being the latest trend, and distributed firewalls (like Cisco's Hypershield) emerging in the market.
Understanding how Kubernetes transforms traditional IP networking concepts into a dynamic, software-defined environment is crucial. This article demystifies Kubernetes security, making it accessible for network engineers familiar with ACLs and VLANs. You may think this doesn't apply to you, but if you're planning a firewall refresh anytime soon, then these concepts will need to be part of your vernacular going forward.
Revving Up System Security with Extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF)
The Extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) is a tech innovation that allows user space applications to join the high-speed action of the operating system's kernel. It enables faster security operations and real-time policy tuning, acting as a force multiplier and boosting efficiency and adaptability by allowing user space functions to transition into kernel space.
Bridging Kubernetes, Cilium & eBPF to Networking Concepts for Network Engineers: Part 3 Observability
As cloud-native technologies continue to converge with traditional networking in the datacenter and enterprise, understanding how Kubernetes, Cilium and eBPF works is crucial for network engineers. With hybrid mesh firewalls being the latest trend, and distributed firewalls (like Cisco's Hypershield) emerging in the market.
Understanding how Kubernetes transforms traditional IP networking concepts into a dynamic, software-defined environment is crucial. This article demystifies Kubernetes observability, making it accessible for network engineers familiar with Logging and NetFlow. You may think this doesn't apply to you, but if your planning a firewall refresh anytime soon, then these concepts will need to be apart of your vernacular going forward.
