Network Longevity – Think Car, Not Smartphone

Network Longevity – Think Car, Not Smartphone

With all the expectations and hype that surround software-defined networkings, it’s easy to get a little jaded. But that misses the massive impact it’s had for enterprise networks. In this piece, Tom Hollingsworth rightly points out that this programmability is no longer a new feature that network engineers are excited about. Instead, it’s become a staple of the modern data center, one that increasingly organizations depend on.

Moving beyond the CLI with Aruba 8400 (Enabling SDN for NetOps)

August 31, 2017 by Christopher Kusek 1 Comment

Moving beyond the CLI with Aruba 8400 (Enabling SDN for NetOps)

When I first saw the Aruba 8400 I was awestruck, surprised, actually legitimately excited! I know, I know it’s just a bunch of ports inside of a chassis, but that’s not all it was though. The 8400 brought something to the party which has been forlorn and forgotten in the systemic world of Network Engineering and Administration, and that is they realized the end-users of this product WERE Network Engineers and Administrators. But wait, what do I mean by that?
