商品描述

Use policies and Cisco® ACI to make data centers more flexible and configurable—and deliver far more business value

Using the policy driven data center approach, networking professionals can accelerate and simplify changes to the data center, construction of cloud infrastructure, and delivery of new applications. As you improve data center flexibility, agility, and portability, you can deliver far more business value, far more rapidly.

 

In this guide, Cisco data center experts Lucien Avramov and Maurizio Portolani show how to achieve all these benefits with Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) and technologies such as python, REST, and OpenStack. The authors explain the advantages, architecture, theory, concepts, and methodology of the policy driven data center. Next, they demonstrate the use of python scripts and REST to automate network management and simplify customization in ACI environments.

 

Drawing on experience deploying ACI in enterprise data centers, the authors review design considerations and implementation methodologies. You will find design considerations for virtualized datacenters, high performance computing, ultra-low latency environments, and large-scale data centers. The authors walk through building multi-hypervisor and bare-metal infrastructures, demonstrate service integration, and introduce advanced telemetry capabilities for troubleshooting.

 

Leverage the architectural and management innovations built into Cisco® Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI)

  • Understand the policy driven data center model
  • Use policies to meet the network performance and design requirements of modern data center and cloud environments
  • Quickly map hardware and software capabilities to application deployments using graphical tools—or programmatically, via the Cisco APIC API
  • Increase application velocity: reduce the time needed to move applications into production
  • Define workload connectivity instead of (or along with) subnets, VLAN stitching, and ACLs
  • Use Python scripts and REST to automate policy changes, parsing, customization, and self-service
  • Design policy-driven data centers that support hypervisors
  • Integrate OpenStack via the Cisco ACI APIC OpenStack driver architecture
  • Master all facets of building and operating multipurpose cloud architectures with ACI
  • Configure ACI fabric topology as an infrastructure or tenant administrator
  • Insert Layer 4–Layer 7 functions using service graphs
  • Leverage centralized telemetry to optimize performance; find and resolve problems
  • Understand and familiarize yourself with the paradigms of programmable policy driven networks

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

使用策略和Cisco® ACI使數據中心更具靈活性和可配置性,並提供更多商業價值。

使用基於策略的數據中心方法,網絡專業人員可以加快並簡化對數據中心的更改、雲基礎設施的構建和新應用的交付。通過提高數據中心的靈活性、敏捷性和可移植性,您可以更快地提供更多商業價值。

在本指南中,Cisco數據中心專家Lucien Avramov和Maurizio Portolani展示了如何通過Cisco應用中心基礎架構(ACI)和Python、REST和OpenStack等技術實現所有這些好處。作者解釋了基於策略的數據中心的優勢、架構、理論、概念和方法。接下來,他們演示了使用Python腳本和REST在ACI環境中自動化網絡管理並簡化定制的方法。

作者借鑒了在企業數據中心部署ACI的經驗,回顧了設計考慮因素和實施方法。您將找到虛擬化數據中心、高性能計算、超低延遲環境和大型數據中心的設計考慮因素。作者介紹了構建多超級管理程序和裸金屬基礎設施、演示服務集成,並介紹了用於故障排除的高級遙測功能。
