Analytics Monitoring and Actionable Insights

Control-plane and Data-Plane Isolation


Cloud Service Management Plane

Virtualized Services Directory

Virtual Routing & Switching (VRS) •  Distributed switch / router – L2-4 rules •  Integration of bare metal assets

Virtualized Services Controller (VSC) •  SDN Controller, programs the network •  Rich routing feature set based on ALU 7x50

Virtualized Services Directory (VSD) •  Network Policy Engine – abstracts complexity •  Service templates and analytics

Environment:

•  ESXi based virtualized compute infrastructure

•  Inflexible legacy network and application delivery infrastructure

Challenges:

•  Complexity: VLANs, hardware appliances, manual configuration

•  Cost: Frequent hardware refresh, high support and operational costs

•  Scalability: Needed a flexible, elastic solution with self-service automation
