Proof of concept

Proof of concept environments enable customers to evaluate the introduction of new technology, existing investments and upgrades to determine if they will positively affect their organization and achieve desired business objectives. Proofs of concept leverage infrastructure from the ATC's pre-built environments as well as hardware and software from strategic partners and OEMs.

Explore Proofs of Concept

Proofs of Concept leverage our existing (and expanding) data center infrastructure, as well as equipment from our strategic partners and OEMs, and bring it all together with our solution experts and test automation capabilities to simulate a solution or implementation in record time.

Cisco ACI Multisite Lab 2 - ACI and VMM Policy Lab and Tutorial

Cisco's ACI Anywhere vision is to allow a single security and connectivity policy with a single pane of glass to manage all multicloud environments. The key to ACI Anywhere is the ACI Multi-Site Orchestrator (MSO), which allows the administrator to create consistent security and connectivity policies across multiple physical, virtual and cloud-based sites. This series of 4 lab modules will go through all the steps necessary to bring up an ACI Multi-Site environment from scratch. It will be divided into modules for the student to consume easier.
