Overview vSphere Availability zones were introduced in vSphere 8 to provide high availability for Tanzu Workloads across clusters. Clusters are mapped to zones and they do not have to be co-located in the same physical datacenter however they must be under the same logical datacenter construct with latency between sites not exceeding 100ms. This provides […]

Overview Multi-tenancy is the ability to offer NSX networking and security services to multiple tenants completely isolated from each other. Every tenant will also have its own RBAC configuration and can be assigned quotas to limit the number of objects that can be created inside a tenant. Multi-Tenancy has been a long awaited feature in […]

Overview This is part two of blog series I started to cover the most recent security features introduced in VMware Antrea 1.6.0 (based on project Antrea 1.9.0) and NSX 4.1. I find this release of VMware Antrea and NSX has elevated containers security in the Enterprise to a higher level by introducing the ability to […]

Overview VMware NSX Advanced Load Balancer (Avi Networks) offers rich capabilities for L4-L7 load balancing across different clouds and for different workloads, this in addition to Global Site Load Balancing functionality (GSLB) which allows an organisation to run multiple sites in either Active-Active (load balancing and DR) or Active-Standby (DR) fashion. For load balancing containerised […]

Overview NSX ALB (Avi) offers rich capabilities for L4-L7 load balancing across different clouds and for different workloads, this in addition to Global Site Load Balancing functionality (GSLB) which allows an organisation to run multiple sites in either Active-Active (load balancing and DR) or Active-Standby (DR) fashion. For load balancing containerised workloads in Tanzu/Kubernetes clusters, […]

Overview In my previous blog post (HERE) I talked about integrating Tanzu workload clusters on vSphere with Tanzu (TKGs) with WS1 access as external identity provider, I was glad to receive positive reactions on that but I also received couple of requests for covering the same topic but for Tanzu Kubernetes Grid (TKGm) since there […]

Overview With the release of vSphere 8, VMware introduced Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters version 2, with TKG 2 you can integrate the supervisor cluster with an external identity provider via OpenID Connect (which utilises OAuth2.0 for client authentication) which allows organisations to use separate users and groups for their developers who need to deploy and […]

Overview NSX ALB (previously known as Avi) offers rich capabilities for L4-L7 load balancing across different clouds and for different workloads. However if you run vSphere with Tanzu (TKGs) on top of NSX-T networking, NSX-T will deploy standard NSX load balancers to offer L4 load balancing for guest Tanzu clusters cluster-api and subsequent loadbalancer services […]
