What would you build if you could treat your network infrastructure programmatically? That’s what we’re going to consider in today’s sponsored Heavy Networking episode with Nokia. Nokia’s SR-Linux is infrastructure-as-code friendly, and their NetOps Development Kit allows you to think of the network as data models.
On that platform, you can build…all sorts of things. Like what? Stay tuned, and we’ll explain, but here’s one teaser for you: VXLAN proxy. If you have no idea what that is, your brain might pop a little when you hear about it. Mine did.
Our guest today is Bruce Wallis, Senior Director of Product Management in Data Center Switching at Nokia.
We discuss:
- Nokia’s SR Linux NOS and the NetOps Development Kit (NDK)
- NDK’s model-driven management approach
- Data centers: cookie cutter design, not cookie cutter operation
- NDK use cases including KButler, Fumble, and VXLAN proxy
- More
