Global Cloud Services Trends

Global Cloud Services Trends
Network architecture needs visible failure domains
A diagram of devices is not an architecture unless it shows which links, controls and people can fail together.
Global Cloud Services Trends
Internet security needs a recovery owner
Protective tools can detect and block, but resilience depends on a named person who can revoke access, restore service and communicate after a control fails.
Global Cloud Services Trends
Changing an IP address needs a dependency inventory

Impact Drones offers counter-drone service for data centres
Impact plans Q3 pilots for containerised interceptors, but no data-centre customer or operational results have been disclosed.

Timur Bakeyev and the Maintenance Work Behind Network Identity Continuity
The visible milestones of Internet infrastructure are launches, standards and major security incidents. Timur Bakeyev's documented record points instead to the quieter work between those moments: adapting identity-related software to different systems, keeping packages buildable…
