Stocking will discuss Gandi-s work on Virtual Network over TRILL (VNT), a new multi-tenant network architecture for virtualized data center networks, at the one-day conference which is billed as a highly technical marketing-free event.
“dotScale as a no-B.S. conference reflects the Gandi no-B.S. business approach,” said Thomas Stocking, COO, Gandi U.S. “I-m looking forward to presenting our latest development efforts and hearing about other cloud technology advancements.”
Experimental evaluations show that VNT is able to support several hundreds of switches, thousands of physical nodes, and hundreds of thousands of tenants with only negligible overhead, all with very minimal configuration.
