Cisco Multicloud: Cloud ConsumeHelps you deploy, monitor, and optimize applications in multicloud and container environments

Shankar SrikantaTechnical Solution Architect, Data Center

Accelerating Innovation

“56% of cloud adopters use cloud services to enable innovation,

50% to improve business agility”

“MicroservicesMomentum Accelerates”

“Digital disruption drives CIOs to double down on innovation”

“The more programmers on a company’s platform, the more

software applications are created, attracting customers and still more developers — a flywheel of growth and profit.”

“Large enterprises increasingly embrace open-source software to attract

developers and keep up with digital-native competitors.”

Microservices: what do I need?

Problems to solve

• Diverse traffic pattern with no context

• Network and Security teams have limited to no visibility into container workloads

• Segmentation and security internal to the cluster can only be done by cluster administrators.

• Missing tools to troubleshoot network issues

Segmentation

• Secure K8s infrastructure:

• network isolation for infrastructure related objects

• Network isolation between namespaces

• Controlling access between Kubernetes services and external services

Communications outside of the Cluster

• Non-Cluster endpoints communicating with Cluster:

• Exposing external services, how? NodePort? LoadBalancer?

• Scaling-out ingress controllers, how can you scale?

• Cluster endpoints communicating with non-cluster endpoints:

• POD access to external services and endpoints

Demo:Container Visibility with ACI

In this live demo:

• Control Plane view

➢ K8S node mapping

➢ K8S objects mapping

• Data Plane view

➢ EPG mapping

➢ Namespace annotation

Visibility

ACI makes containers visible and manageable!

• Seamless experience to Kubernetes users

• Visibility at control plane and data plane level

• Consistent policies encompassing baremetal, virtual machine and container domains

• Flexible EPG mapping model, can enable enforcement by annotating deployments

Using Kubernetes

• Time to bring up K8 Clusters

• Day 2 Operation Issues

• Resources used are out of control

• Misuse of public cloud resources

• Where are my corporate policies?
