When Using Cloud Computing to Replicate is the Right Idea

Data Center Knowledge

By: Bill Kleyman July 23rd, 2013. With a well-planned deployment, and a good infrastructure, companies can efficiently load-balance their IT environment between multiple active, cloud-based, sites. So, if one site should go down – users would transparently be balanced to the next nearest or most available data center. .

IDF 2013: Future of SDN with the Intel ONP Switch Reference Design

Scott Lowe

Recep talks about how the predominant architecture for network virtualization involves the use of overlay networks created and managed at the edge by virtual switches in the hypervisors. Some of these services naturally should run on the top-of-rack (ToR) switch, like load balancing or security services. So how does this work?

On Network Virtualization and SDN

Scott Lowe

According to Martin, the term SDN originally referred to a change in the network architecture to include a) decoupling the distribution model of the control plane from the data plane; and b) generalized rather than fixed function forwarding hardware. What about virtualized load balancers? What about NX-OS, JUNOS, or EOS?

Fountainhead: Differing Target Uses for IT Automation Types

Fountainhead

A specific angle I want to address here is that of infrastructure automation ; that is, the dynamic manipulation of physical resources (virtualized or not) such as I/O, networking, load balancing, and storage connections - Sometimes referred to as "Infrastructure 2.0". a Fabric), and network switches, load balancers, etc.
