My reasoning is simple—I want to build the Linux user experience I want to use.</p> <p>While the &ldquo;what I want to use&rdquo; is always a moving target, there have been enough exciting recent developments in the Linux world that shed preconceived notions about how Linux distributions are put together.</p>https://gaveen.me/2019/10/the-future-of-networking-is-software/Tue, 01 Oct 2019 00:00:00 +0000https://gaveen.me/2019/10/the-future-of-networking-is-software/<p>I believe the future of networking in the data center is software-based.

Network—in a way—is the last frontier in the data center that is not yet fully subscribing to cloud ethos.</p>
