April 25, 2015 Citizens of Tech 001 – Knuckle Cracking Felt Animals
[player]
Citizens of Tech is an experimental podcast about technology and other things interesting to techies. We know there’s other podcasts in this space, but it’s something we really wanted to do, so we thought we’d give it a try.
Who’s “we”? Well, we is me — Ethan Banks — and my good friend Eric Sutphen. We’ve known each other for years, once worked together at the same company, and still happen to live nearby. We’re also unstoppable nerds. So hey — why not give this thing a shot? We figure lots of you that are into networking are probably into tech as well, so what better audience to gather feedback from than the Packet Pushers community?
The format of the show is in three segments: present, past, and future. Also, we’ve already instantiated a Deathwatch we’ll update regularly. Because some tech sucks.
We hope you like show number one. Here’s what we went on about.
Present
Coin, the one credit card.
Disney’s 3D printer that makes huggable things.
DIY Raspberry Pi laptop.
Google’s QUIC protocol.
Why knuckles crack, as revealed by an MRI and a man named Fryer.
We looked at 100K galaxies, but found no sign of alien life.
Deathwatch: Tidal.
Past
Our ode to the sweet, sweet Commodore 64. I think I’m going to cry…tearing up…have to go now.

Future
Kraftwerk powercell – charge your USB devices with butane.

February 11, 2015 Community Show – Our Briefing Review for February 2015
[player]
In this community podcast, Greg and Ethan perform a bit of an experiment. Here’s the setup. We get briefed by vendors all the time. Ethan has been covering some of his briefings in his News & Analysis series on ethancbanks.com. But we thought it would be fun to review the briefings in an audio format together.
What do you think? Good idea? Bad? Let us know what you thought of the show via the comments below, or send an e-mail to [email protected].

In this show, we discuss recent briefings we received from CloudGenix, Light Cyber, VMware, and Meru. We also go on a little rabbit trail about Brocade, because they came to mind. You know how we are.
CloudGenix
SD WAN solution, where a WAN fabric managed by an SDN controller is overlaid onto your existing WAN, no matter what sort of transports you use. Mix and match private WAN, public WAN, multiple carriers, LTE, etc. — then forget about them. The CloudGenix solution takes care of routing specific applications over specific links, based on application criteria you set in their policy engine.
Light Cyber
These guys are in the security space, finding the systems on your network that have already been breached. An extremely low false positive rate means that you’ll only get a few alerts each day, but when you do get them, they are actionable.
VMware
Big announcements from VMware recently, many around vSphere 6.0. Greg and Ethan park on one announcement regarding long distance vMotion, where you can now move a virtual machine from one side of the country to the other, allowing latency up to 100ms. We can think of lots of reasons this is a terrible idea in practice, even if it’s what customers want. Is there a use case for this?
Meru
The folks from Meru build wireless infrastructure, and have announced the XPress Cloud product, a turnkey wifi infrastructure for SMB users. XPress Cloud competes with Aerohive and Cisco Meraki, and seems a competent offering.

In the future, we’re going to bring these down to ~30 minutes. We went longer than we’d planned on today. Really, we did. We’ll limit to maybe 2 briefing reviews in the future. We’re looking forward to your feedback.

Network management and monitoring is at the heart of every network but not every product is based on client requests. Enigma NMS has been built by engineers for engineers to use. That's why the interface will be totally familiar to you and has the features you expect to be in the product.
The post PQ Show 36 – ENIGMA NMS – Network Management – The Engineers Monitoring System from NETSAS Australia appeared first on Packet Pushers.
