NEXUS Dashboard, NEXUS Insights and AppDynamics Lab
Over the years, Cisco has developed various ACI tools (now for DCNM and NX-OS and eventually public cloud visibility) known as the day 2 operations suite. The tools are Network Assurance Engine (NAE) and NEXUS Insights (NI is now the combination of Network Insights Resources (NIR) and Network insights Advisor (NIA)). Cisco has embarked on combining NAE and NI into a single pane of glass view and providing sharable data lakes for all apps, allowing for correlating application performance and fabric events.
NSX on ACI Lab
This is an On-Demand Lab for VMware NSX-T running on top of Cisco ACI. With this lab, you will be able to access a live lab with NSX-T configured to utilize ACI with both a single and double overlay implementation. The lab will step you through viewing the configuration for both ACI and NSX-T.
Federation: NSX-T Gets Centralized
Since the release of NSX-T, network architects have been patiently waiting for multi-data center support similar to NSX-V's capabilities. NSX-T 3.0 had the Federation feature available, but it wasn't ready for production environments until 3.1. Let's explore Federation and its use cases, how it works and some of the cautions.
VMware NSX-T Virtual Lab
This is an On-Demand Lab for VMware NSX-T. It provides the same lab experience as the one day NSX-T training class but without the slide content and on-site architect. This lab is not meant to teach operations, best practices or replace VMware's hands-on classes.
What's New in NSX-T 3.1
VMware has again stepped up its game in the data center networking world with significant enhancements to the NSX-T platform.
Cisco ACI or VMware NSX -- Why Not Both?
As software-defined networking becomes more popular in the data center, we are frequently asked whether we would recommend Cisco ACI or VMware NSX. In most cases, neither one will accomplish all objectives, so why not implement both if that gets you closer to the desired end game?
VMware NSX Overview Briefing
VMware NSX has been on the market for 6+ years. It has taken a couple of forms from the original NSX-V (vSphere) to the latest which is NSX-T. NSX is a full-fledged SDN platform that operates independent of the data center switching fabric underneath. It provides a full compliment of networking and security features to provide next-generation data center capabilities. This briefing will discuss the benefits of VMware NSX.
ACI and NSX Integration Briefing
One question is frequently asked around Cisco ACI and VMware NSX: "Which one do we choose?" The harsh reality is that rarely will one solution address 100 percent of your needs. Flexibility is key into today's data center networks. To achieve that, it is not unusual to have a discussion of both technologies working together and complimenting each other. This briefing will discuss how you integrate the two solutions to meet your requirements.
What's New in NSX-T 3.0
The latest release of the powerful data center networking solution brings many changes with big implications for your data center.
Application Segmentation Solutions: Top 10 Features
Evaluating solutions for application segmentation is challenging. There are countless unknowns that are difficult to expose without essentially living with each solution. As time does not typically allow for such a luxury, this article intends to help you zero in on those things that are most important to the average customer, and to draw upon our experience to help you more quickly establish a securely segmented architecture.
VMware NSX-V to NSX-T Migration Workshop
You've discovered that VMware will not be providing any further feature updates to the NSX for vSphere product and will soon be end-of-support. How do you ensure that your data center powered by NSX-V is not left vulnerable or obsolete?
The Future of Intent-based Networking and Multi-domain Architectures: Part III
The last in a series of articles exploring intent-based networking, this article focuses on the art of the possible as it pertains to linking all the disparate SDN domains.
The Future of Intent-based Networking and Multi-domain Architectures: Part II
The second in our series, this article explores what intent-based networking (IBN) is and how organizations can leverage it to build multi-domain architectures.
The Future of Intent-based Networking and Multi-domain Architectures: Part I
This series of articles will explore what intent-based networking (IBN) is and how organizations can leverage it to build multi-domain architectures. As more organizations embrace these architectures, WWT is seeing a change in networking the likes which haven't been seen in many years.
NSX on ACI Workshop
WWT's goal of the NSX on ACI Workshop is to help provide guidance around integrating VMware NSX with Cisco's ACI.
NSX-T Microsegmentation Demonstration
VMware NSX-T provides powerful tools for implementing micro-segmentation to secure sensitive applications in an enterprise. By placing workloads into a secure connectivity fabric, NSX-T applies a single administration interface across workloads running virtually in VMware or KVM environments, in the public cloud or on "bare-metal" servers. In this brief video, we use NSX-T version 2.4 to micro-segment a simple 3-tier application with components distributed across virtual and physical infrastructure.
Why Enterprise Segmentation Is Not Just Part of a Sound Security Strategy
Enterprise segmentation is a complex, multi-discipline approach that cannot yet be achieved with a single solution.
