Docker Commits to Bringing the Sandbox Kit Spec to the CNCF
Docker and the CNCF will partner on an open spec to make agent permissions portable Docker Sandbox Kits let you package an AI agent together with exactly what it is allowed to do, so anyone can pull the same agent with the same limits, review changes to those limits, and enforce them. Now, Docker has

Why Your Backups Are Too Big: A Practical Guide to Content-Defined Chunking
By Gilles Chehade You change one line in a large file. Your “incremental” backup re-uploads the whole thing anyway. Nine times out of ten, it’s not the network, and it’s not your storage backend. It’s the algorithm deciding where to cut your data into pieces. Every deduplication system works the same way: split data into

Implementing Secure Zero-Touch Provisioning in AI and Edge Infrastructure
By Juha Holkkola, FusionLayer Group How DHCP Changed Connectivity In the late 1990s, the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) quietly catalyzed a revolution in digital connectivity. Before DHCP was introduced, connecting devices to a network involved manual entry of IP addresses, DNS servers, subnet masks, and gateways. Networks were fragile, prone to…

Disaggregated Routing with SONiC and VPP: Lab Demo and Performance Insights – Part Two
In Part One of this series, we examined how the SONiC control plane and the VPP data plane form a cohesive, software-defined routing stack through the Switch Abstraction Interface. We outlined how SONiC’s Redis-based orchestration and VPP’s user-space packet engine come together to create a high-performance, open router architecture. In this second part…

Disaggregated Routing with SONiC and VPP: Architecture and Integration – Part One
The networking industry is undergoing a fundamental architectural transformation, driven by the relentless demands of cloud-scale data centers and the rise of software-defined infrastructure. At the heart of this evolution is the principle of disaggregation: the systematic unbundling of components that were once tightly integrated within proprietary…

Kubernetes on Bare Metal for Maximum Performance
When teams consider deploying Kubernetes, one of the first questions that arises is: where should it run? The default answer is often the public cloud, thanks to its flexibility and ease of use. However, a growing number of organizations are revisiting the advantages of running Kubernetes directly on bare metal servers. For workloads that demand
