Cribl Stream is an observability pipeline tool living between any data source and any destination. These destinations can be systems of analysis (Splunk, Elastic, etc.) or systems of retention (S3 buckets, Data Lakes, etc.). Stream uses Sources, Destinations, Routes and Pipelines to move data coming from data sources, processes through its pipelines (group of functions) and sends the results to one or many destinations in the format that is best for the environment and its use cases.

MPLS has been used for over two decades. It is the cornerstone of Service Provider Networks and many enterprise, utility and federal networks. MPLS delivers mission-critical applications and services. This lab provides a hands-on lab environment that will familiarize the user with the primary routing configuration of MPLS (Multi-protocol Label Switching) with LDP (Label Distribution Protocol) running on Cisco routers.

This lab demonstrates Nokia routing using MPLS on 7750 Service Routers, 7250 Interconnect Routers and 7210 Service Access System.

First coined in 2019, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is the convergence of network and security frameworks. SASE aims to reduce the operational complexity that comes with a cloud-first delivery model. Application assurance and service optimization are achieved via global Point-of-Presence (POPs) and peering with carriers providing high-performance backbones. The combination of all these factors gives the user a consistent and secure experience no matter where they are located.

This lab aims to familiarize the user with the Zutacore Cooling Solution called HyperCool™. HyperCool™ is a complete, two-phase, closed-loop solution for cooling a server's heat-emitting components, such as the CPU, GPU and FPGA.

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), coined by Gartner in 2019, is a solution that blends networking and security into cloud scale architecture that optimizes end user performance and improves security for an organization. With the Zscaler and SD-WAN integration, you can rapidly gain access to cloud-delivered security in minutes. This market leading API automation makes it very fast and agile to deploy and manage the network and security environment of hundreds or even thousands of remote sides.

This lab introduces you to Cloudify, a powerful, multicloud management system that deploys and manages cloud environments across public and private cloud infrastructure.

Thales CipherTrust Manager is a central management point for the CipherTrust Data Security Platform. It provides a unified management console that makes it easy to discover and classify data, and to protect sensitive data wherever it resides using a comprehensive set of CipherTrust Data Protection Connectors from Thales. CipherTrust Manager is available in both virtual and physical form-factors that integrate with FIPS 140-2 validated Thales Luna Network or Cloud HSM, and third-party Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) for securely storing master keys with highest root of trust. These appliances can be deployed on-premises as well as in private or public cloud infrastructures. This allows customers to address compliance requirements, regulatory mandates and industry best practices for data security.
