LISP
LISP is a networking technology that has been searching for a relevant problem for a decade and a half (the LISP IETF working group started in the spring of 2009). Initially, I was cautiously optimistic. However, as LISP pivoted from an IPv6-over-IPv4 solution to a multihoming solution, then VM mobility and IP endpoint mobility solution, until it finally landed in Cisco Campus BU as the foundational technology of Software-Defined Access, I lost all hope.
high availability
High availability refers to the ability of a system or application to keep running even if there is a problem or failure. This is important because if a system or application goes down, it can cause problems for those who rely on it. To achieve high availability, multiple copies of the system or application are set up in different locations so that if one fails, the others can take over and keep things running smoothly. This helps ensure that the system or application is always available when needed.
