Doublefish Solutions Certified - Open-Source Network Data-Optimization Specialist


Introducing,
 Doublefish Solutions Certified - Open-Source Network Data-Optimization Specialist

It is essential that these days to specialize in already available open-source technologies. Open-Source is already proven that it is best and as competent as any close ended alternatives. Hence if you are working in any corporate, or even a college going student and or a fresh graduate, you have to master building networking infrastructure with Linux and other open-source supporting software.

So the main objective of this certification is to mainly promote the same. Besides a good know-how on TrafficSqueezer, students should also learn many Linux Kernel internals, structured code analysis of Kernel, Networking software in Linux and so on.

Unlike other certification programs, we are not limiting with any proprietary technology in here, instead you should be all focused learning open-source alternatives. This is primarily focused individuals who later want to become successful Systems and Network Administrators, Linux Networking professionals, Kernel and systems software developers, c/c++/Linux/Device Driver programmers, and so on.

DNS-Caching via free and Open-Source DNSMASQ Solution

Often in small and large CDN Networks, there is a need to redirect lots of DNS references. Usually there will be 2-n DNS Domains should be mapped to every available real source resource.

For example here is a resource (in this case a picture in a website):

So as one can see in this above picture, a resource via CDN can be fetched from various available redundant sources. Sometimes these sources may exist physically closer to the users who are requesting these resources (visiting websites and opening webpages). In the above example out of 3 choices cdn1, cdn2 and cdn3, cdn2 resource abc.png is selected and been served to the user.

In such instances even for internal deployments CDN Networks need DNS-caching solutions. One of the most simplest free Open-Source DNS Caching solution is dnsmasq.
Official website of dnsmasq Open-Source project: http://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/doc.html


Dnsmasq can be tested with since standalone machines, and even with large network setup scenarios.
One can follow the quick simple guidelines and install Dnsmasq caching solution within few minutes.
For official setup and usage guide kindly refer the project URL: http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/setup.html
