#mobile For IT and security professionals, Android 4.x (Ice Cream Sandwich) is a big deal For most people (who don’t live in the midwest), talking Ice Cream in the middle of the winter may be a bit odd, unless you’re talking about Google’s latest Android release (4.x). “Ice Cream Sandwich” is an important step forward for the mobile operating system platform in that it includes much needed enterprise security features including support for MDMs and a SSL-VPN Framework. This is an important step forward because of the growing demand upon IT by employees to...

Scaling #VDI requires scaling its entire supporting infrastructure as well as operations Something application developers have known for years is that the success of an application deployment depends as much on scaling dependencies as it does on scaling the focal application. Integration with other application services for a variety of functions requires scalability across all interconnected functions. Operations has similar concerns when it comes to deploying the application - authentication, authorization, access management, logging, and more. With the increasing push for flexibility and more rapid response by IT, this means paying careful attention to the ability...

#vcmp #interop As enterprises grow and expand their use of virtualization while trying to manage explosive data growth, so too must their infrastructure.
In the past, organizations are traditionally segmented into “sizes” by number of employees it has. But with the explosive growth of data caused by natural growth, new devices, and even the use of new standards such as HTML5, we may need to start looking at alternative ways of determining just what “size” an organization may be. “SMBs have caught up to their large enterprise brethren in recognizing that their data is the lifeblood of their companies.” and...

It seems to be a universal phenomenon, but every vendor’s solution is somehow perfect for every customer, every application and every instance. It seems that the Pareto Principle no longer applies; at least if you listen to the marketing. More likely, these statements or suggestions are more like those of a famous marketing quote: Any customer can have a car painted any colour that he wants so long as it is black. – Henry Ford In the real-world, different customers and different application have unique requirements that may not fit nicely...
“On-Demand IT” is the reason that many organizations continue to pursue the promise of cloud computing despite the challenges that still remain to be solved. The notion that new applications can be provisioned and deployed, or new users can be provisioned with all the applications they need, with the click of a button is a seductive prospect. It promises to finally align Business and IT by removing the time barrier between the identification of a need and the ability of IT to deliver the tools to capitalize on it. Everyone seems to have bought...
The whole goal of any IT organization is to provide value to the business. That value is generally created by connecting users to the applications they need in order to get the job done. So, the goal of IT is really about connecting users to applications. It may involve many components in between and a lot of complexity; certainly this is increasingly true in today's world of mobile users and mobile (virtual) applications. It is all about the user and the application. That’s what IT is measured on. All applications, however, are not the same. Even two...

When F5 recently announced the Access Policy Manager (APM) one of the exciting elements was the ability to add access control and single-sign-on (SSO) capabilities to existing application delivery controllers. This allows customers to simplify their application deployments and provides a significant cost savings. Of course, releasing a new product offering that promises amazing new capabilities and enormous cost savings is something that anyone can do. Once the customer has it, it is often left up to them to figure out how to integrate it into their environment—a task which often decreases the value of the...
Not long ago F5 argued that in this highly competitive and and dynamic market it is often difficult for customers to make informed product decisions. There are so many quality products in the marketplace with so many complex features, and there is little time and money to do full-blown evaluations of all the possible solutions. However, choosing the wrong product can be disastrous. One solution is to consult industry analysts like Gartner, Forrester, IDC, or ESG who can provide a vast amount of information, experience and knowledge to provide an insight both into the products as...

In today’s fast paced, Internet driven world, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find reliable, verifiable information concerning the real-world performance of technology. Every vendor has performance reports and “third-party” testing, but so few of them are really independent and almost none of them come even close to approximating the real-world. Technologists know that every environment is unique and the most important metric is how the technology works in their specific environment. A close second, however, is knowing how the technology has worked in other, albeit different but, similar environments at organizations that have many of the same...
As the virtualization boom continues, many practitioners are looking to expand beyond the server and into other aspects of their architecture. Their intent is simple: if server virtualization provides such flexible and simple deployment, then virtualizing other aspects of the network should provide even more flexibility and simplicity; you could run an entire application segment, including switches, routers and firewalls all with the confines of a single physical hardware device. Moving that application segment to a new datacenter or backup facility would be as simple as copying files. Consequently, many manufacturers of network and application delivery equipment have rushed virtual...
Server virtualization is booming. Enterprise organizations and mom-n-pop operations alike are experiencing a whole new level of flexibility within their IT operations. Server virtualization not only provides cost savings through consolidation, but also provides reduced deployment times and greater control over the use of finite resources. The sophisticated tools provided by today’s leading hypervisor vendors create the ability to dynamically balance the resource needs of applications across the available resources. Instead of having to invest in resources to meet the needs of every application’s peak requirements, they can dynamically move unused resource to augment applications experiencing peak traffic....

The challenges associated with cloud computing and remote data center locations are strikingly similar, particularly with regards to performance and transfers of large files across bandwidth constrained, e.g. WAN, links. Congestion, latency, and prioritization of other applications can slow down the transfer of data across data centers, whether traditional or cloud-based. Conversely, the utilization of Internet-connected WAN-speed links to provide both transfer of large data files and application service to myriad remote employees and users via mobile devices, roaming laptops, and dedicated desktops in remote offices, can cause performance challenges.
The challenges are only going to become more complex as...

One of the challenges with deploying advanced application delivery controllers as a way to improve the security, performance, and scalability of specific applications is the wealth of user-configurable options available. It can take network and application server administrators days if not weeks to optimize a configuration for their specific environment using all the knobs and buttons available.
A full-proxy based application delivery solution has a variety of specific configuration options that can be “tweaked” to gain optimal performance for application environments like IBM WebSphere. For example, it is possible to configure the client side (WAN) and the server side (LAN)...
The growth rate amongst mobile users continues to outpace traditional access methods. According to IDC Research “Users will access the Internet through more than 1.5 billion devices worldwide in 2008, including PCs, mobile phones, and online videogame consoles. By 2012, the number of devices accessing the Internet will double to more than 3 billion, half of which will be mobile devices.” The increase in mobile users and devices accessing the Internet through service-provider offerings creates unique challenges for service-providers primarily due to the peculiarities of the protocols used – particularly for AAA services - and a lower tolerance...
On Monday, November 16th, F5 announced a partnership and OEM agreement with Quova, Inc, providers of IP geolocation data. IP geolocation is technology that allows physical location information to be extrapolated from an end-user’s IP address. For example, geolocation data can be used to identify if a user is accessing a website from North America. Where Quova technology differs from standard geolocation data is the granularity of information they provide. One of the challenges of using geolocation is the accuracy of the information and the ability to use that information to reliable make network and application decisions. Not only...

Two good, full years into the virtualization revolution in the data center and things are going swimmingly. You can’t walk into a data center today without seeing physical servers running Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware vSphere 4, or another virtual server platform, and IT departments are already moving past basic deployment of those platforms into other areas where they can become more mobile and agile such as cloud computing and data center to data center virtualization. And yet despite this overwhelming acceptance and adoption of virtualization, management of virtual assets – both discretely as well as part of a larger unified...
For decades now there have been warnings - some dire, some simply informational - that the depletion of IPv4 address is imminent. We’ve (meaning IT) known about this eventuality for a long time but now it’s starting to hit the mainstream media and of course the sky is falling. These dire warnings of peril continue to surface more frequently as the actual ticking of the IPv4 timebomb grows louder and louder. Some comments on articles related to this topic dismiss the urgency, claiming that because we (meaning IT, of course) have known about...
