DevOps and security teams can use VoltMesh to provide zero trust networking and security services at every distributed cluster but with centralized management, visibility, and policy control.

“I view Telefónica as a leader in the European market on this front,” analyst Will Townsend said.

VMware repackaged tech as 5G Telco Cloud; 5G poised to boost wireless WAN; and Amazon, Microsoft teamed up with the LF Climate Finance Foundation.

The platform includes updated versions and more integrated support for VMware’s cloud-native software stack and network automation services.

Cisco smashed SD-WAN, Kubernetes into CN-WAN; T-Mobile detailed its $40B upgrade plans; and Google's Istio move ignited an open source tempest.

Nutanix CEO left amid shift to subscription-based model; VMware launched Tanzu into space; and Dell saw productivity boost from remote work.

The Kubernetes S3 Operator extends Cloudian's support for cloud-native environments where it already serves as a scale-out backup target.

CEO Pat Gelsinger said the U.S. Space Force made an “eight-figure commitment to the Tanzu platform” on VMware’s Q2 earnings call.

Fortinet raked in six MSP wins; BT crowned McAfee, PAN, Fortinet “critical security” partners; and Kubernetes finally dropped new updates.

The release was initially expected to drop around the end of June, however project leaders explained that external events altered that plan.

The move follows a significant overhaul in June that saw Aruba enter the edge market with a cloud-native platform.

The cloud giant also launched its Cloud App Modernization Program that helps map out an organization's upgrade path using Google's cadre of cloud products.

The pandemic fueled a cybersecurity push; Fortinet claimed SASE superiority; and Cisco squashed a critical WAN software bug.

Cloud-native technology is the only and right approach to get a large number of enterprises onto mobile networks at a massive scale, said Zeeshan Najmuddin, analyst at ACG Research.

Cisco smashed SD-WAN, Kubernetes into CN-WAN; ZTE powered China Mobile's 5G core network; and Versa widened its SD-WAN net.

AWS Controllers for Kubernetes (ACK) enables users to leverage Kubernetes for more control over AWS service resources.

The project allows DevOps teams to tag the WAN needs of their Kubernetes-managed microservices clusters so they can be mapped to the SD-WAN controller.

VMware pushed Kubernetes automation; Amazon promised a hiring spree; and IBM went all in on AI.

The SlashData and CNCF survey also found that somehow 14% of backend developers had not heard of Kubernetes, compared to just 5% that had not heard of containers.

The cloud management updates “really cut across both VM-based infrastructure as well as container-based infrastructure,” VMware’s Ken Lee said.

The scaled-down push is targeted at moving OpenShift out of the data center and public cloud environments and into edge environments.

HPE swallowed Silver Peak to bolster its SD-WAN market position; VMware scored a Dish 5G deal; and Fortinet bought SASE startup Opaq.

The launch represents the culmination of more than a year and a half of work, said SonicWall's Dmitriy Ayrapetov.

The launch comes just weeks after Google made a controversial hosting decision for its Istio service mesh platform.
