For almost 20 years, Google has been providing incredibly complex and large-scale systems that are responsive to users' requests. The Google search engine finds the answer to any questions in a fraction of a second, Google maps accurately reflects the earth's landscape, and Google's mail is available in 365/24/7 mode and, in effect, became the first public cloud storage. Are these systems impeccable? No, they also refuse, break down and become obsolete, like any technique. We just do not notice it. The thing is that for more than ten years Google has been developing a unique technology Site Reliability Engineering...

 
 
Today we want to talk about the Internet of things (IoT) and the industrial Internet of things (IIoT), and also about how Splunk is connected with this.

Splunk Industrial Asset Intelligence

 
 
 
In the spring of 201? Splunk announced the launch of its first platform Splunk Industrial Asset Intelligence (IAI) , directly related to IIoT, intended for process automation engineers in industrial companies.
 
 
This solution is intended for companies in production, energy, transportation, oil and gas, as well as other industrial sectors.
 
 
Splunk IAI correlates data from automated control systems (ACS), sensors, SCADA systems and applications, which makes it easy to monitor and diagnose equipment operation and problems in real time.
 
 
Since June 2? the Splunk IAI is released with limited availability, and a full release is scheduled for autumn of 2018 .

The theory and the main points on the methodology for calculating the "readiness factor" were described by me earlier in this article .
 
 
In this publication, we calculate the "availability ratio" of two sets of carrier-class network equipment installed in each telecommunications cabinet and compare it with the calculation of the "availability factor" for a set of equipment without duplicated elements.
 
 
Why do you need to do calculations of the "availability ratio" for different cases of equipment layout?
 
 
We have data on calculating the "availability ratio" in the final results may be ...

In late July, the developers of the VPN-tunnel WireGuard proposed set of patches , which will make their software for organizing VPN tunnels a part of the Linux kernel. However, the exact date of implementation of the "idea" is still unknown. Under the cut, let's talk about this tool in more detail.

This, in the first place, was due to the fact that the deployed work environment required expensive complex software and qualified employees to correctly install and configure the system. Today, solutions are becoming more economical, ergonomic and light, and successfully conquer the market for small and medium-sized businesses. This is evidenced by the growing demand for virtualization technologies for workplaces, and many alternative solutions offered on the market. Under ...
