NVMe: Lower Prices, More Features Expand Use Cases
June 4, 2019
The wide adoption of Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) over the last few years has completely revolutionized the storage industry in no small part due to lower prices and better performance. With the introduction of more features, such as management, more enterprises and hyperscale data centers are migrating to NVMe. The introduction of NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF) promises to accelerate this trend for enterprises using a variety of infrastructures.
NVMe is architected with a layered approach, which enables NVMe data...
Next Generation Firewall Testing Using Open Standards
June 4, 2019
Organizations are faced with complex decisions when evaluating what products will improve network security. There are many factors that go into this type of decision of what products will improve the security of a network. Next-generation firewalls are a critical piece of network security, so they need to be carefully evaluated when purchasing. A next-generation firewall defines the latest evolution in firewalls that take traditional firewall function of packet filtering, network and port translations and stateful inspections adding additional filtering,...

How Open Testing Standards Can Improve Security
May 14, 2019
When creating security metrics, it's critical that test methodologies cover multiple scenarios to ensure that devices perform as expected in all environments.
Networks are a complex collection of components defined by many different standards. These standards help solve network problems ranging from security to performance and usability.
An open standard is a publicly available standard that can be consumed in a variety of ways for deploying a secure solution for a network. Readers of open security...
Open Security Tests Gain Momentum With More Lab Partners
May 9, 2019
Open security testing received a boost with the announcement last week that the University of New Hampshire's InterOperability Lab (UNH-IOL) would become the first university-based testing facility to work with NetSecOPEN, a vendor-based organization that aims to create an open framework for testing next-generation firewall products.
With few exceptions, security testing has been a closed affair — a situation that has often been a sore point for both vendors and security-equipment consumers. Over the past five years, businesses have...
What is NVMe-oF interop testing and why is it important?
May 2, 2019
Nonvolatile memory express (NVMe) has gained incredible adoption as a low-latency interface for connecting host systems with SSDs. NVMe storage attached directly to host systems via peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) is commonly available in high-end storage servers, laptops, and mobile devices.
A complementary specification, NVMe over fabrics (NVMeoF) defines the attachment of that same NVM storage media over a fabric with microsecond-level latency. The NVMe-oF specification was designed to be agnostic of the underlying transport, and an additional...
