This article contains some good information on IPv6 for those who are just starting to get more familiar with it, although toward the end it turns into a bit of an advertisement. Here’s a set of 15 principles for designing and deploying scalable applications on Kubernetes. Operating Systems/Applications.

Nick Buraglio discusses IPv6 Unique Local Addressing (ULA). Rob Novak shares his experience in replacing Meraki with TP-Link Omada. Anton Kuliashov writes about why Palark uses Cilium for Kubernetes networking. Given how frequently I include content from Ivan, you can probably tell that I’m a big fan.

Want/need to better understand IPv6? Operating Systems/Applications. If you work with TextFSM templates (see here for more information), then you might also like this post on writing a vim syntax plugin for TextFSM templates. Denise Fishburne has you covered. Denise also has you covered if you need BGP knowledge.

Vincent Bernat has a really in-depth article on IPv4 route lookup on Linux (and one on IPv6 route lookup as well). Operating Systems/Applications. While I’m a bit short on links in some areas, hopefully this is outweighed by some good content in other areas. Here’s hoping you find something useful! Networking.

It is the ultimate incrementally scalable system; simply by adding resources it can handle scaling needs in storage and performance dimensions. It also needs to handle every possible failure of storage devices, of servers, networks and operating systems, all while continuing to serve hundreds of thousands of customers.
