The transponder, which is developed by Deutsche Telekom, NTT, Telefónica, Telia, and Vodafone, is designed to meet the needs of metro, core, and data center interconnect applications.

“Ultimately, each cloud can’t hide from public, open-source benchmarks,” said Cockroach Labs' Andy Woods.

The platform is based on the Knative project, which continues to be a lightning rod of controversy in the serverless ecosystem.

The adoption is another block in CFF's path-building toward Kubernetes.

"We can now confidently say that the network is resilient, performant, secure, and ready for broad adoption," said Storj Labs CEO Ben Golub.

The company has posted a 100% year-over-year increase in revenue during the past four years, and has more than doubled its customer base each of those years.

COVID-19 postponed Google Cloud Next; SoftIron placed its bets on SONiC; and Telefónica tapped open RAN vendors.

The carrier's network will have 500 base stations covering around 150 “locations” around the country at launch, with plans to expand to all prefectures by June.

Open RAN is gaining momentum and it’s being driven further by collaboration between the Facebook-led TIP and the O-RAN Alliance.

The job cuts include nearly 400 Cisco employees and 151 Hitachi Vantara employees.

The work is targeted at bridging the gap between VNFs that typically run on virtual machines (VMs) and CNFs that run in containerized environments.

The vendor will put the new funding toward accelerating innovation that will drive Kubernetes acceptance to become the compute standard.

Operators responded to expected network impacts from the Coronavirus; Oracle Cloud surged in Q3; and SD-WAN vendors targeted SMBs.

The vendor has a twofold strategy to address multiple orchestration and enterprise challenges in Kubernetes as telecommunication architectures migrate into the cloud-native space.

Jeff Barr, chief evangelist for AWS, noted that it “includes only the packages that are needed” and “integrates with existing container orchestrators.” Think Kubernetes.

Amazon, Apple convened for COVID-19 response at White House; Microsoft defeated Necurs Botnet; and Hitachi Vantara skimmed Containership’s assets.

HPE buys Scytale, embraces open source security; Intel ditches Nervana, high on Habana; plus the latest VC/M&A news from February.

Containership sank last fall after failing to monetize its Kubernetes distribution.

Cisco dreamed of 5G WAN; VMware's modern application strategy spun Kubernetes Goldilocks tale; and HPE’s 5G core went cloud native.

The vendor has a unique opportunity to help make the code-to-cloud space incredibly efficient, simple, and cost effective, according to Docker Inc.'s Justin Graham.

The vendor added native Kubernetes support to its Cloud Foundation software stack and products to its Kubernetes-focused Tanzu portfolio.

“Edge compute is like a private data center but worse, like way worse,” NetFoundry CEO Galeal Zino said.

SONiC is now supported on Juniper’s QFX5210 single ASIC platform, including support for leaf and spine deployments in data centers.

SAP revamped org structure, exited 2 board members; Intel slashed jobs despite record quarter; plus the latest headcount hirings, promotions, and staff changes.
