Next Generation Data Center - Cisco ACI (NGDCACI)

 

Course Overview

Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) has evolved from the original concepts of SDN to providing centralised automation and policy-driven application profiles. This delivers speed and agility in the data centre when deploying applications and business services.

This dynamic one day course is designed to provide an understanding of Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) for Account Managers, System Engineers and Data Centre Architects.

The morning session is for AMs and SEs while the afternoon session for SEs, dives deeper into the Cisco ACI architecture and components, Nexus 9000 product family, ACI protocols and open APIs. Learn about the business drivers for SDN and how it differs from a traditional Data Centre architecture. Learn also how Cisco ACI compares with other SDN solutions and the business benefits of deploying Cisco ACI within the Data Centre.
