Take a Network Break! We start today’s show with a conversation on the impacts of coronavirus on IT, and then jump into tech news. We’re joined by Ned Bellavance, co-host of the Day Two Cloud podcast.
On the virus front we discuss COVID-19’s effects on:
* Conferences and events
* Internet loads
* VPNs, remote access, and WFH
* Mental and social health
* Potential financial impacts
If you want to skip the virus talk, our news analysis starts at 27:17.
We discuss Aruba’s new Air Pass and Air Slice announcements, VMware’s rollout of Tanzu for Kubernetes and vSphere 7, and WatchGuard’s acquisition of Panda Security.
Arista announces 400G optics for data center interconnect, Microsoft releases a patch for a vulnerability in SMBv3, and ISPs react to the virus outbreak by lifting caps, and by cutting prices on broadband services for low-income customers.
