I'll say "thank you" after I know more about the pricing and fees and how long it will take before my money appears in my bank account. It's great that you are setting up something…

I wouldn't exactly say the title is misleading, because it still is an address failover between cloud networks. But your points about the public addresses is of course correct. The…

As you can see, after publishing this article I received some feedback and questions about the comparison, including from the author of stunnel himself, Michal Trojnara. Even thoug…

1. Sorry you thought a comparison in which your program doesn't come out on top is a flame. It wasn't. Don't know what's unfair about comparing out of the box, default install perf…

Well, I contacted you privately to discuss this so that we may both enlighten each other on what's going on, but you did not respond to my email and instead went out publicly. Oh w…

vCider does not use larger packets. It can't, since they still have to be routed over the same public Internet. stunnel tries to compress traffic as well, which works if you send a…

Engineering is always about making the right compromises. Why does it have to be 100% dedicated or 100% cloud? What most people don't realize is that it really is a continuum. For …
