Reality of Hybrid IT and Key Challenges

• Require App Re-configuration

• Apps break due to Infrastructure Dependencies

Siloed Applications

• Different Networking and Security Models

• Different Management Tools

Operational Complexity

• No Visibility or Control

• Limited Workload Protection

• Unsecure Connection

Loss of Security

A New Approach to Hybrid IT to Make Your Clouds Work as One

Unify workload managementAny workload

Any VM

Move network and security policies

with your workloads across

the cloud

Consume service offerings from a

huge global partner ecosystem

Tap into global data while meeting local data sovereignty

requirements

Goal: Hybrid IT cloud solution where enterprise and public cloud environment is securely interconnected, allowing for secure application mobility.

Customer IT Scenarios for Hybrid cloud

IT Facilitated Use of Public Clouds

• Secure use of public clouds

• Control costs with consolidation

• Public clouds as extension of enterprise IT

Shadow IT Control

Secure Enterprise Dev/Test Environment in Public Cloud

• Access to Enterprise Tools and Data

• Bring Back Workload for Production

Dev/Test

Burst or Extend Apps into the Public Cloud

• Managed peaks with no changes to application

• Keep data local while extending web or app

Capacity Augmentation

Capacity AugmentationExample: E-Commerce

Problem

• Need to burst to cloud instead of building capacity for seasonal peaks or unanticipated demand

• Cloud workload may break enterprise security and compliance rules

ICF Shell

Continue to use existing enterprise services

Extend Web and/or App Tier into CIS to augment

on-prem capacity demands

Business Outcomes

• Save cost and time to build additional capacity

• Use all existing enterprise services

Problem

• Developers using public cloud natively without enterprise security

• Developers cannot use or test against enterprise services and databases

Secure Application Development and Test

Usergroup2 Portal

1. Developers accessing CIS through Enterprise portal

2. Extend multiple networks from Private DC to CIS with enterprise security policies

3. Workload mobility from Private to CIS and back

Business Outcomes

• DC still compliant with workloads in Cisco Intercloud Services

• Reduce cost for IT - leverage public cloud for temp workloads
