CISCO's ACI solution in a software-defined data center will handle your network automation, from basic networking to firewalls, intrusion protection, things like that. And what this does, like any other software-defined solution, is inject intelligence around what you're doing in your network. No longer moving traffic from one server to another, but you're moving very specific traffic, so your network knows that this is a database server, that this is a voice server, and can really add software quality of service, things like that, to this traffic.

 

CISCO's ACI solution, aside from automation, allows users to grow at an incredible scale. Adding new switches, new racks to the data center is as easy as plugging them in and receiving configuration that's been already configured at a main controller. So, configuring once, pushing many, like many other software-defined networking technologies. You can take advantage of segregation of traffic immediately and understanding how your network works, what needs to communicate with each other, and, at the same time, not allowing anything outside of that realm to communicate with those traditional applications.

 

Security's always a major concern when any new technology's pushed to the data center. With CISCO's ACI technology, security is at the forefront. We can segregate traffic in a way that traditional networks can't. Your web traffic never has to talk to any other traffic that it will not naturally interact with in the program stack. So, your users see what they need to see and won't see anything else.
