Shortly after being awarded an ITIL® Foundation certification, a recipient’s natural inclination is to ask: “Now what? How do I take the best practices I’ve learned and apply them to my organization?”

What is Twisted Pair and Does It Work?

Article | June 12, 2012

“Twisted Pair” is another way to identify a network cabling solution that’s also called Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) and was invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1881. Indoor business telephone applications use them in 25-pair bundles. In homes, they were down to four wires, but in networking we use them in 8-wire cables. By twisting the pairs at different rates (twists per foot), cable manufacturers can reduce the electromagnetic pulses coming from the cable while improving the cable’s ability to reject common electronic noise from the environment.

What is the Cisco UCS Manager?

Article | Feb. 01, 2012

The Cisco UCS is truly a “unified” architecture that integrates three major datacenter technologies into a single, coherent system: Computing Network Storage Instead of being simply the next generation of blade servers, the Cisco UCS is an innova­tive architecture designed from scratch to be highly scalable, efficient, and powerful with one-third less infrastructure than traditional blade servers.

What Happens If I Have More Than One Switch With Redundant Links?

Article | Oct. 11, 2012

That depends on their configurations. For example: While it makes very good sense to include redundant physical links in a network, connecting switches in loops, without taking the appropriate measures, will cause havoc on a network. Without the correct measures, a switch floods broadcast frames out all of its ports, causing serious problems for the network devices. The main problem is a broadcast storm where broadcast frames are flooded through every switch until all available bandwidth is used and all network devices have more inbound frames than they can process.

What is the Difference Between Ethernet II and IEEE 802.3?

Article | Jan. 12, 2022

To understand the difference between Ethernet II and 802.3, you first must know how Ethernet works. While Ethernet cables transmit data, their role is relatively simple compared to that of the Ethernet card — also referred to as an adapter. It’s within the function of this card that you find the differences between Ethernet II and 802.3.

Understanding Kubernetes Networking

Webinar – Recorded | July 15, 2020

Kubernetes automates container management. The process of container orchestration is so complex that trying to manage containers by hand has become impossible. There are many, components to container orchestration, but one of the most misunderstood is networking. In this 1-hour webinar we’ll explore how k8s actually performs IP networking and service discovery, two of the most critical components for successfully delivering microservices. We’ll examine how kubernetes carries the burden of cloud networking and lastly what it takes to pass the CKAD/CKA Certifications.

The Benefits of Cisco ACI in the Data Center

Article | June 19, 2017

In 2013, Cisco released their Software Defined Networking (SDN) solution for the data center known as Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI). For many years, the networking industry has been asking for an approach to configuring networking devices more efficiently than having to individually configure each and every router and switch.

Tech Talk: Ethics and Artificial Intelligence

Webinar – Recorded | April 21, 2020

IT Professionalism Europe (ITPE) and Global Knowledge jointly hosted online public “Tech Talk” on Ethics and Artificial Intelligence. Two leading speakers in the field, Dr. Anna Jobin of the Health Ethics & Policy Lab at ETH Zurich and Dr. Lorien Pratt, Chief Scientist and co-founder of Quantellia in Silicon Valley will be sharing their insights. The discussion includes ethical dimensions to artificial intelligence (AI) and why ethics are fundamental to AI research and implementation. They also explore ethical requirements, standards, and best practices that underpin the future of AI.
