Greening the Future Data Center Infrastructure
How do you green an operation that requires reliable-resilient power 24/7/365, in a dynamically changing environment, while maintaining global environmental responsibility, sustainability, and profitability?

Some data centers consume more energy than a large town or small city. But those towns and cities have time to relax and shut down. While data centers are critical infrastructure, they also run our worlds critical infrastructure – so keeping them online can be a matter of life and death. Combine this with the continued need for more sustainable operations, renewable energy goals and objectives, and a dramatic increase for data storage services – and you have an interesting challenge.

Next Generation Mission Critical Networks

whitePaper | April 12, 2023

In a society moving towards digital, where access to data in almost real time is key to every single industry sector, Public Safety (PS) services are seen as laggers when it comes to take most of the technology available to enable agencies and emergency services to benefit the best information available. By relying in voicecentric technologies, Public Safety services cannot support themselves for instance on simple video-based use cases, which would leverage decision making processes with insightful information that could for example make a difference between life and death.

Under the hood of Wslink’s multi layered virtual machine

whitePaper | September 19, 2022

ESET researchers recently described Wslink, a unique and previously undocumented malicious loader that runs as a server and that features a virtual-machine-based obfuscator. There are no code, functionality or operational similarities that suggest this is likely to be a tool from a known threat actor; the complete analysis of the malware can be found here.

Infrastructure Protection Best Practices

whitePaper | December 14, 2022

In the post-pandemic world, we spread data everywhere. As remote and hybrid workforce models become the norm, multi-cloud deployments evolve into the de facto computing standard for distributed workloads. This expands the attack surface well beyond the walls of a traditional data center and overextends already understaffed security teams. As a result, organizations struggle to combat the growing number of insider and outsider threats targeting their invaluable digital assets.

Cisco ACI and F5 BIG-IP Design Guide

whitePaper | May 12, 2022

The document discusses load balancer design considerations and deployment options in Cisco ACI, specifically with F5 BIG-IP from three aspects: network design, F5 design, and multi-tenant design. This document covers features up to Cisco ACI Release 5.2. One of the key considerations of the network design with load balancer is to ensure incoming and return traffic go through the same load balancer (one exception is direct server return (DSR), which doesn't have this requirement). There are various options you can use to insert the load balancer. One way is to use the load balancer as a gateway for servers or as a routing next hop for routing instances. Another option is to use Source Network Address Translation (SNAT) on the load balancer or use ACI Policy-Based Redirect (PBR) to make the return traffic go back to the load balancer.
