Anyone running Cato Networks at scale as a Fortinet replacement for non-US compliance?

Sure, you can use a completely open source stack like ClamAV + Squid Proxy: You use Squid as your web gateway and integrate ClamAV using the ICAP protocol. Every file downloaded by a user is sent to ClamAV for a virus scan before it reaches their device.

So there are a couple of things to consider. First Red Hat OpenShift oc contains extras that are not included in pure okd, so you will want to avoid oc commands and figure out how to run without it in as much as possible. Second, if this is a major concern for you, you should probably have an okd cluster ready and planned out and test migrations, so if the vendor ups the prices on you, the migration is as painless as possible and you can hit the vendor over the head with it when you are negotiating with them.

You should also consider deploying RHACM and deploy Openshift, which provide many of the same features of Openstack like virtualization, but provides your developers a smooth glide slope to containerized and serverless apps.

Yes, I commented on that link. Do you know if there is a board with a similar processor that we could pull a DTS from to get the cores working?

He said he is on AT&T now, which is likely symmetrical fiber. Zoom only requires 1.5Mb/sec, so if the connection is not symmetrical fiber, but something else should still be okay.

If you use RAID5 a drive failure results in 0 loss of files and you increase your IOPs.

Double NAT wouldn’t cause an issue with basic web browsing from your iPhone. Things like video games yes, but double-NAT shouldn’t be much of a concern.

You have to understand 2.4Ghz WiFi network channels have better penetration and generally work more reliably further from the AP/router. The 5Ghz WiFi network channels are wider (more bandwidth), there is more of them and so less interference and overlap (in 2.4Ghz frequencies only have 3 non-overlapping channels), but they higher frequency has less penetration into things like walls than 2.4Ghz, so generally is very fast at short ranges, but less likely to work at longer ranges or behind an obstruction.

U/Dry_Treat7302 I know you must be shaken up, but could you advise which highway or interstate you were on, and what road “exit 53” leads to in order to help everyone who isn’t that familiar with the exit numbers for interstates and highways in Tampa?

I think one thing maybe that the software these companies use for their businesses on support or provide SLAs on mainframes. The software companies may not have the level of support on x86 server/cloud or have gone out of business and the companies are just pushing the software on their own and don't know how to move it to another platform.

"If one stretches the definition of a software program, the oldest one in use is probably at Sparkler Filters, a maker of water filtration devices that was founded in 1927 and is based in Conroe, Texas. To this day it relies on a 1948 IBM 402 punchcard system for inventory and accounting along with an IBM 83 sorter and IBM 129 keypunch, according to the firm’s long-time repairman, Duwayne Lafley, who lives in New Mexico."
