UCS Use Cases • Easy onboarding of UCS blades into CloudPlatform • “Baremetal as a Service”
UCS Use Cases • On demand installation of XS, vSphere, KVM • UCS Profile extraction and storage • Dynamic Resource repurposing
Events, Demos Jan – Cisco Live, May – Citrix Synergy, June – Cisco Live CloudPlatform + UCS + Nexus 1000v + VXLAN + ASA 1000v + NetScaler
Events, Demos Oct – Citrix Synergy - CloudPlatform + UCS + Nexus 1000v +
VXLAN + ASA 1000v + NetScaler + VSG + vPath
Cisco Validated Design • CloudPlatform on FlexPod
Cisco Validated Design CloudPlatform on VMDC, XenDesktop/CloudPlatform/FlexPod
Networking Integrations • Integration with Nexus 1000v, ASA 1000v, VSG • Integration via VNMC or NSM
Networking Integrations • vPath – configure NS, ASA 1000v, VSG

CloudPlatform - UCS integration
• What: Tighter integration of Cisco UCS blades with Citrix CloudPlatform ᵒ Easy onboarding of new UCS blades for use by CloudPlatform
ᵒ Deployment of OS/Hypervisor image
• Why: Easy, dynamic expansion of cloud resources
• How: Leverage programmability of UCS Converged Infrastructure and
CloudPlatform’s Orchestration

UCS - CloudPlatform Integration Details
• Easy onboard of UCS Blades on CloudPlatform
• Provision and deploy XenServer on Blades
• Using UCS blades as Physical Servers (vs. VMs) – “Baremetal as a Service”
• Extending to more Hypervisor platforms (vSphere, KVM etc.)
• Dynamic Resource repurposing – autonomically, flex resource capacity ᵒ Define threshold where more UCS blades are added or removed automatically
ᵒ Consolidate sparsely used UCS blades to reclaim hosts or repurposing
• UCS Profile extraction and storage ᵒ Allows easy duplication of host configuration when adding a new host to CloudPlatform

Future Integration with Cisco ASA-1000v
• CloudStack will instantiate a separate ASA-1000v per tenant
• CloudStack programs tenant specific FW rules on ASA via VNMC
• All VLAN traffic of the tenant to the public Internet now flows through the firewall
