Good thing about DDR shortage: this will trigger resources constrained engineering, and software engineers will think twice before malloc(). And maybe, they'll optimize existing code (or maybe not).

This is because their deep packet inspection boxes barf on IPv6 so they’re eliminating it so they can build their own Great Firewall.

Today in @CiscoIOSXR release notes: "We have upgraded RSVP-TE to support link bandwidths up to 10 Pbps, essential for integrating high-capacity interfaces." Second time this week I use Petabits per second (Pbps). We must get used to it, it's real. #pushdastuff

Mikrotik CRS812 DDQ, introducing 400Gbps. While I won't position it for "AI clusters" as the presenter suggests, it's still quite an achievement and impressive. Kudos @mikrotik_com for the launch. youtube.com/watch?v=_zh4w0md…

Cloudflare's defenses have been working overtime. Over the past few weeks, we've autonomously blocked hundreds of hyper-volumetric DDoS attacks, with the largest reaching peaks of 5.1 Bpps and 11.5 Tbps. The 11.5 Tbps attack was a UDP flood that mainly came from Google Cloud. Stay tuned for a full breakdown in our upcoming report.

I was lucky again to speak at Cisco Live. What I enjoy in the show are hardware exhibitions and demos. This year we had a 64x800G switch powered by Silicon One G200 (51.2 Tbps) using direct liquid cooling technique

Great presentation from the legend @petrlapu @_CHINOG_ 12: youtube.com/watch?v=t7d3gTQ6… Unfortunately he could not cover the last section which is about 100k clusters, so we must stick with the slides: chinog.org/wp-content/upload…
