Heavy Networking 686: Juniper Cloud-Native Contrail Networking CN2 (Sponsored)

Today we’re going deep on software-defined networking for containers and OpenStack with sponsor Juniper Networks. Juniper has revamped its approach to secure networking for telcos and telco cloud-delivered services with Juniper’s Cloud-Native Contrail Networking or CN2 software. CN2 lets you automate the creation of network connections for containers and for virtual machines while also providing routing, security, segmentation and isolation of workloads. This is one of those episodes where you might want to take notes because we’re going to get into a bunch of stuff, including container network interfaces or CNIs, service meshes, virtual routers, visibility and observability, software-defined network operations, and eBPF. Our guest and guide into the guts of Cloud-Native Contrail Networking, hereafter referred to as CN2, is Nick Davey. Nick is Director of Product Management for SDN and Telco Cloud technologies.
