Capacity Planning

Capacity planning forecasts compute, storage, and network resources to balance performance needs against cost constraints, preventing both shortages and wasteful over-provisioning.

Certificate/PKI is the framework of digital certificates and Public Key Infrastructure that verifies identities and enables encrypted, trusted communication across networks.

Client VPN

A Client VPN is a user-initiated encrypted tunnel connecting individual devices to private networks, enabling secure remote access to organizational resources from any location.

Containers (Docker/K8s)

Containers package applications with their dependencies into isolated, portable units. Docker creates containers while Kubernetes orchestrates them at scale across distributed environments.

Core/Access Switch

A two-tier network architecture dividing switches into core and access layers, simplifying campus networks by eliminating the distribution tier while maintaining performance.

CVE/CVSS

CVE assigns unique identifiers to security vulnerabilities while CVSS provides standardized severity scores, together enabling organizations to track and prioritize remediation of software flaws.
