Heavy Networking 628: Pluribus Extends Its SDN Fabric To SmartNICs/DPUs

Heavy Networking - Un pódcast de Packet Pushers - Viernes

Categorías:

On today’s sponsored Heavy Networking podcast we talk to Pluribus Networks about its Unified Cloud Fabric. Recently Pluribus announced that Netvisor One, its network operating system, has been ported to operate on Nvidia Bluefield 2 Data Processing Units (DPUs). A DPU combined with software can extend a software-defined network fabric to servers. Bringing network services to a DPU enables many new options – power reduction, improved network performance, and the ability to bring services such as firewalls, orchestration, and more closer to workloads. Our Pluribus guests today are Mike Capuano, Head of Technical Marketing; and Alessandro Barbieri, VP of Product Management. We discuss: * Pluribus’s Unified Cloud Fabric and how it works * Extending Pluribus’s fabric to NVIDIA Bluefield 2 DPUs * The case for extending networking and security to the host * Why run network and security services on a DPU vs. directly on the host * Customer use cases * More Show Links: Pluribus Networks Unified Cloud Networking Changes the Game – Pluribus Blog Pluribus Unified Cloud Networking: What, Why, How – Pluribus Blog Unified Cloud Networking Launch Broadcast – Pluribus Video @pluribusnet – Pluribus Networks on Twitter Pluribus Networks on LinkedIn Heavy Networking 619: Pluribus Empowers NetOps With Kubernetes Network Visibility (Sponsored) – Packet Pushers Heavy Networking 613: Deploying An Active-Active Data Center Network For Private Cloud (Sponsored) – Packet Pushers
