NFD18 was my first Networking Field Day, after starting my adventure as a delegate with TechFieldDay last February at TFD Extra @CiscoLive. I knew this was going to be great, but I'd never imagined it to be so great. 3 days of great presentations, enriching discussions about networking, and also loads of fun. Credit goes...

Last friday I was out with some friends for a catch-up, some laughter and a few beers. It'd been a while since we last met. At some point during the evening they started to make fun of me because of this blog. "You keep talking about open-source networking, and this and that. Why don't you... Continue Reading →
I woke up this morning to a nice blog post that appeared in my RSS reader. Finally! An Open Intent-Based Networking Platform Managed Service Providers Can Embrace Now, if you know me, whenever the word "Open" gets mentioned, I'm immediately captivated by it, so I tapped on the link and read it once. Then I... Continue Reading →
Finally I have some time to write a few lines about my experience at KubeconEU18, which I attended last month in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was not only my first Kubecon, but also my first non-strictly-networking-oriented conference I've ever attended. Have I felt like a fish out of water? Not really, there was plenty of networking...

It must definitely have occured to you (after you took a job somewhere) to have regretted not having done some more due diligence on the company you were about to go to. Recently, I had some discussion with friends and colleagues who asked my opinion on how you could actually understand if the employer is... Continue Reading →
This post is in reply of Gianpaolo's post "White Boxes for Everyone?" appeared on his blog last November and recently shared by Ivan Pepelnjak. First, let me state that I don't disagree with him nor with Ivan, but I also believe the matter is worth some more in-depth analysis. His thesis is that the whole... Continue Reading →
I've been thinking about what to write on my first day of attendance at TFDx. I had so much going on in my tiny and inadequate brain that it's really hard to put things on (digital) paper. I'll start saying that I'm thankful to the staff at GestaltIT for having had the opportunity of attending... Continue Reading →
Hi all, I'm not sure whether I mentioned this before or not. Anyhow...next week I'll have the pleasure to attend the famous "Networking Field Days" event, hosted by Cisco at the Cisco Live Europe in Barcelona. "Networking Field Day is an in-person, and live-streaming event that is held twice per year. We bring together the best... Continue Reading →
Hi all, here I am again talking anything but networking. Sorry but I can't help it, these things really get me excited. I've been reading two AMAZING books that I wholeheartedly recommend you all to read: Black Box Thinking: The Surprising Truth About Success - Matthew Syed The Innovator's DNA: Mastering the Five Skills of...

These days I'm dealing on a daily basis with Intent-based networking (we can debate as long as you want about what that means or doesn't, but that's not my point), SDN and Cloud. I know they all sound buzzword-y, but - hey ho - that's actually what I'm doing (LBaaS, NaaS, Openstack Neutron, BGP+EVPN, etc).... Continue Reading →
