Cisco Cloud ACI and AWS: Manage Multicloud Data Centers with Ease

there is an unprecedented amount of data being generated outside the data center from branch field equations and to the edges of the network and the cloud no matter the industry to ensure timeliness locality volume and scale for maximum customer satisfaction data centers must compute where the data is to make this a reality the multiple data centers where they are in the world must wholeheartedly participate into the public clouds that have become a viable alternative to private data centers but managing multiple data centers is much easier said that then that's where sis comedy central castrator comes into the picture cisco multi-state Orchestrator makes managing multiple data centers a breeze and now with latest Cisco cloud ECI the multi-state Orchestrator lets network administrators manage multiple public clouds as just another ACA site as if they are mere extension to already existing data center infrastructure simply put public cloud appears as another data center in multi-site Orchestrator multi-site Orchestrator can manage policies across multiple on promise ACA data centers as well as public lobs the policies configured from multi-site Orchestrator can be pushed to different on-premise ACA sites or cloud sites as required for the network administrator to manage the multiple cloud sites using the multi-site Orchestrator the multi-site Orchestrator first needs to understand the language the various clouds speak there's one-to-one correspondence from the various cloud constructs to the ACI constructs for example the tenant of the ACS ID is the same as the user account on the Amazon AWS cloud and so forth this policy translation programming of the cloud environment is performed using a new component of the Cisco cloud a CA call Cisco cloud application policy infrastructure controller or Cisco cloud epic fiscal cloud epic runs natively on the supported public laws to provide automated connectivity policy translation and enhanced visibility across the workloads in public clouds when running Cisco Cloud ACI a hub-and-spoke virtual private cloud or a VPC topology is deployed in a doubly as native network infrastructure the hub is a infra VPC when the spokes are user v pcs where the endpoint applications are deployed the infra BBC is responsible for establishing connectivity between multiple V pcs in AWS as well as securely extending the connectivity from AWS all the way to on-premises this is achieved by deploying a pair of Cisco cloud service routers or CS or thousand waste in in from a PC for connectivity to on-premises the CSR established an IPSec tunnel to on-premise which forms the underlay and establishes a vehicle and overlay tunnel to the ACI spine running on on-premises a bgp evpn session is established between the ACI spice to the CSR in AWS which forms a control plane for route and policy exchange the connection between on premises and AWS can happen either over plain internet connection via AWS direct on it now looking into the connectivity within the AWS the CSR seen in fluffy PC form IPSec tunnels and BGP session to the virtual private gateways or VG W's in each user VPC so the CSR's can now route all the traffic between multiple DPC's in AWS all the policies are translated to a doubly as native constructs and are directly programmed as security groups directly attached to the ec2 instances because of this all the instances within the DPC can directly communicate to each other based on the security group policies traffic comes to infra VPC only then it has to communicate to other VP C's either in same region or in different regions or traffic towards on-premises since cloud a CIA uses cloud native constructs and programs them this makes easier to consume any AWS native services the ACI multi-site Orchestrator acts as a single point of policy configuration and orchestration across your multiple ACI data centers as well as multiple public clouds the beauty of this solution is that it completely automates the end-to-end configuration both for control and data plane and helps extend the on-premise ACA data center to AWS and start cloud bursting within an R [Music] you
