#CiscoACI #CiscoChat- Cisco SDN in the Data Center

Digital transformation is changing the world as technology continues to play a central role in today’s business strategy. By helping to reach more customers, offer differentiated services, and grow the business, the relevance of IT is stronger than ever. Customers want to deploy services fast, at scale, at the lowest cost possible.

Cisco’s SDN strategy and portfolio enable policy-driven infrastructure built around ACI and the programmable fabric and network. Cisco offers freedom of choice to IT teams looking to add automation capabilities to their network infrastructure by leveraging their programmability capabilities to accelerate application deployment and management, automate network operations and create a more responsive IT model.

Cisco Application Centric Infrastucture delivers an agile, open, and secure solution for deploying applications across any physical, virtualization or cloud technology being used for data center infrastructure. Cisco ACI provides consistent policy and for multi-hypervisor, container and bare metal server workloads. It is a true SDN solution with built-in secure multi-tenancy. So much so, that our next #CiscoChat on Thursday, December 3rd at 10:00 a.m. PST will bring together a team of experts to discuss the extent of Cisco ACI challenges and the solutions leaders can use to address them.

In the article “The New Need for Speed in the Datacenter Network”, IDC confirms that “Today’s datacenter networks must better adapt to and accommodate business-critical application workloads. Datacenters will have to increasingly adapt to virtualized workloads and to the ongoing enterprise transition to private and hybrid clouds”.
