It’s time for the annual Top 100 vBlog voting as hosted every year by Eric Siebert. This year is notable as some of the long-standing champs of the blogging scene have chosen to withdraw (notably Frank Dennemann and Duncan Epping) to allow some new blood to enter the top 10. For good reason, as Duncan […]
Implementing a multi-tenant networking platform with NSX
This post is part of the Multi-tenant IaaS Networking course.
So we have covered the typical challenges of a multi-tenant network and designed a solution to one of these, it’s time to get down to the bones of it and do some configuration! Let’s implement it in the lab, I have set up an NSX ESG Cust_1-ESG and an NSX DLR control VM Cust_1-DLR with […]
Designing a networking platform for IaaS multi-tenancy
This post is part of the Multi-tenant IaaS Networking course.
Based on my last post, you’ll understand some of the challenges that are faced with traditional approaches to datacenter networking so let’s get into the high-level conceptual design here of how we might solve one of these problems. Most service providers have or are at least familiar with using MPLS for customer segregation in a […]
Multi-tenant network challenges
This post is part of the Multi-tenant IaaS Networking course.
As of late, I have been getting my feet wet in more networking things – Firstly out of necessity, but it has grown into a genuine area of interest to me. I have a homelab that I like to simulate a production working environment in, so I had a nice opportunity to lab up what […]

Migrating from VCSA embedded PSC to external PSC
On a bit of a shorter note to my previous article/novella1https://blah.cloud/architecture/designing-modern-private-cloud-network/ – I have been moving my lab to a bit more of an “enterprise” style architecture – deploying SRM was in the way for that, so I had the need to set up another vCenter, however this gave the opportunity to move to a […]
Designing a modern multi-tenant DC network
This post is part of the Multi-tenant IaaS Networking course.
Over the last 12 months my posting has been dialled back, this isn’t for lack of wanting or ideas, mainly a lack of time and mental bandwidth. Reason being, I have been designing and implementing a new cloud platform (namely “STC”1https://www.novosco.com/cloud-solutions/single-tenant-cloud) for my employer, Novosco – as with any new service or product this requires […]
Please forward: Change of address
Hi All! Just a PSA type thing today, if all has gone well only the most astute among of you will notice any change – www.mylesgray.com is dead, long live blah.cloud.
