Disaggregated Routing with SONiC and VPP: Lab Demo and Performance Insights – Part Two
In Part One of this series, we examined how the SONiC control plane and the VPP data plane form a cohesive, software-defined routing stack through the Switch Abstraction Interface. We outlined how SONiC’s Redis-based orchestration and VPP’s user-space packet engine come together to create a high-performance, open router architecture. In this second part, we’ll turn …
Disaggregated Routing with SONiC and VPP: Architecture and Integration – Part One
The networking industry is undergoing a fundamental architectural transformation, driven by the relentless demands of cloud-scale data centers and the rise of software-defined infrastructure. At the heart of this evolution is the principle of disaggregation: the systematic unbundling of components that were once tightly integrated within proprietary, monolithic systems. This movement began with the separation …
Kubernetes on Bare Metal for Maximum Performance
When teams consider deploying Kubernetes, one of the first questions that arises is: where should it run? The default answer is often the public cloud, thanks to its flexibility and ease of use. However, a growing number of organizations are revisiting the advantages of running Kubernetes directly on bare metal servers. For workloads that demand …
How to stop your LG or Samsung smart TV from tracking you

How to Deploy Lightweight Language Models on Embedded Linux with LiteLLM
This article was contributed by Vedrana Vidulin, Head of Responsible AI Unit at Intellias (LinkedIn). As AI becomes central to smart devices, embedded systems, and edge computing, the ability to run language models locally — without relying on the cloud — is essential. Whether it’s for reducing latency, improving data privacy, or enabling offline functionality, local AI …
Automating Compliance Management with UTMStack’s Open Source SIEM & XDR
Achieving and maintaining compliance with regulatory frameworks can be challenging for many organizations. Managing security controls manually often leads to excessive use of time and resources, leaving less available for strategic initiatives and business growth.
