Shortly after the Brocade launch of the Brocade VDX in September 2012 I got Ivan Pepelnjak on the show to talk about the reality check ( OK, so this one has been sitting in the vault for too long, so shoot me). Lets get underneath the glamour of the launch event and talk performance, capacity […]

Buffer Bloat is the overuse of buffering in network equipment. Well meaning but misguided and, most likely, stupid equipment vendors have tried to avoid packet loss by increasing the the buffers in the network. But they have missed a fundamental property of TCP and UDP protocols, if they live in a buffer for too long, […]

The conversation starts discussing Nexus 5K as a small/mid-size core. Yep, it works. Then Greg gets his Unicorn Riding outfit on and saddles up to run SDN race once again. This results in extensive yelling that "MPLS in the Data Centre is dead, SDN will win". Promptly followed by cool discussion that SDN/OpenFlow changes very little in networking.
If that's confusing, you need to listen in.
