Brice-Abrioux - PeerSpot reviewer
Lead Cyber Architect at a energy/utilities company with 10,001+ employees
Micro-segmentation has delivered deep flow visibility and simplified firewall rule management
Although mapping is currently fine, Akamai Segmentation [Private Offer Only] can improve by providing a more useful and visually appealing graphical user interface for mapping. While we can automate rules through API calls, this is not entirely possible with the same API. Navigation between different sources and generations of APIs can make it time-consuming to achieve cartography. While labeling is beneficial, there is still room for user experience improvements. The improvements are not solely due to the Akamai project; they also stem from issues related to CMDB and the information systems of our company, where sometimes the information is inconsistent, causing Akamai to be unable to automate labeling if that information is not consistently provided.

Modern infrastructure has supported cloud migrations and improved secure distributed workloads
Among the downsides of CentOS 9 | Support by SupportedImages, I find that while installation becomes easier, the migration process concerning mainframes has been well-represented, especially with CentOS 9 | Support by SupportedImages 10 now integrating AI capabilities. The inclusion of GPUs and other resources to process large datasets could be a future direction worth pursuing, enhancing its abilities with RAG or generative AI through proper prompt engineering and ethics considerations. I would prefer to see more AI integrations within CentOS 9 | Support by SupportedImages. IBM is already making strides in this area by investing significantly. Following their acquisition and merger with Red Hat, CentOS 9 | Support by SupportedImages distribution aligns closely with Red Hat's, fostering AI capabilities and a futuristic approach to enhance daily operations through flexible application building on virtual machines.
