From VTEPs to OVSDB, VMware's NSX introduces unfamiliar protocols and technologies to the data center network. Check out this overview to get up to speed.VMware's NSX End Game
September 06, 2013 01:49 PM
Imagine an app store for the data center, where you can get firewalling, WAN optimization and other services with a few clicks. Here's how NSX might make it happen.VMware NSX: Game Changer for Data Center Networks
August 26, 2013 01:38 PM
VMware's network virtualization product, NSX, may upend data center networks the same way the hypervisor changed servers.VMworld 2013 Preview: Virtualization Eats the World
August 23, 2013 11:01 AM
Expect 31 flavors of "software-defined" at VMworld as VMware updates its SDDC vision and promotes software abstractions and tools at every layer of the data center.Arista 7500E Switch Puts Up Big, Big Numbers
May 01, 2013 11:30 AM
Arista Networks’ 7500E makes switches exciting again. New line cards support 10, 40 and 100GbE mix-and-match ports and offer outstanding port density. Arista’s per-port pricing is also compelling.Cisco Nexus 6000: First Impressions
February 01, 2013 04:18 PM
I got a sneak peek of the Cisco Nexus 6000 switch series at Cisco Live. It's packed with 40-GbE ports, multicast support and solid core Ethernet capabilities that will translate into speed, simplicity and scale. The Nexus 6000 means Cisco finally "gets" cloud networking.VMware's SDN Dilemma: VXLAN or Nicira?
January 31, 2013 08:02 PM
VMware has invested in two overlay network approaches: the VXLAN standard originally conceived by Cisco and STT, drafted by SDN startup Nicira. VMware acquired Nicira for more than a billion dollars. Which will VMware choose? Here’s my take.Network Overlays: An Introduction
December 11, 2012 04:33 PM
Network overlays dramatically increase the number of virtual subnets that can be created on a physical network, which in turn supports multitenancy and virtualization features such as VM mobility, and can speed configuration of new or existing services. We’ll look at how network overlays work and examine pros and cons.Why We Need Network Abstraction
November 26, 2012 03:16 PM
Highly virtualized data centers are exposing cracks in traditional network constructs such as VLANs. New approaches that abstract the physical network, including network overlays, are key to providing flexibility and scale.What WAN Optimization Can Teach SDN About Tunneling
November 06, 2012 06:50 PM
Network tunnels used to have a bad reputation, but the rise of software-defined networking (SDN) and network virtualization is changing that. WAN optimization, which uses tunnels, may offer insights that IT can apply to SDN.1 | 2 | Next Page »
