View NowJoin Cisco experts for a technical discussion into ACI.
Watch NowACI delivers on the Cisco Open Network Environment (Cisco ONE) strategy.
Get DetailsIndustry shifts are redefining IT at all levels. On-premise IT consumption models are shifting to cloud-based services. IT as a service (IaaS) is supplanted by applications as a service. Separate development and operations are moving toward integrated development and operations (DevOps). Box-centric management models are migrating to application-centric management.
Business agility requires application agility, so IT teams need to provision applications in hours instead of months. Resources need to scale up (or down) in minutes, not hours.
Traditional approaches take a siloed operational view, with no common operational model between the application, network, security, and cloud teams. A common operational model delivers application agility, simplified operations, assured performance, and scale.
Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) is a holistic architecture with centralized automation and policy-driven application profiles. ACI delivers software flexibility with the scalability of hardware performance.
Cisco ACI consists of:
Key characteristics of ACI include:
Simplified automation by an application-driven policy modelCentralized visibility with real-time, application health monitoringOpen software flexibility for DevOps teams and ecosystem partner integrationScalable performance and multi-tenancy in hardwareThe future of networking with ACI is about providing a network that is deployed, monitored, and managed in a fashion that supports DevOps and rapid application change. ACI does so through the reduction of complexity and a common policy framework that can automate provisioning and managing of resources.Application Owners and Lines of BusinessDramatic reduction in time to service delivery (days to minutes)

Simplified Hybrid Cloud Integration
A hybrid cloud approach consists of simplified transparent integration between an on-premises enterprise data center with a public cloud service provider. This integration includes:
Highly secure Layer 2 networking connectivity between the enterprise data center and the public cloudThe deployment of security and application services in the public cloudManagement features for a hybrid cloud environment, including support for virtual machine (VM) mobility and lifecycle management.To address these requirements, Cisco has developed the Cisco Nexus 1000V InterCloud architecture, which connects Cisco virtual data center environments to public cloud providers. The primary features follow.
The first component is the virtual switch that provides highly secure Layer 2 connectivity between the enterprise data center and the public cloud. This Layer 2 network connectivity allows workload mobility across locations while retaining the same IP address. It also provides local switching for the workloads in the cloud.
No matter how remote the public cloud is, this Layer 2 domain overlay allows full workload mobility between servers in each location. Peak capacity and new virtual machines can be bursted to the cloud as needed, on demand.
This Cisco Nexus 1000V-based overlay connection includes vPath for routing traffic to virtual security nodes and application services in the public cloud. These virtual service nodes are deployed as VMs and can run on virtually any cloud infrastructure, while mirroring the sophisticated policy enforcement requirements in the enterprise data center.

Small Review of RHCE Rapid course, and what's next after RHCE?
Hi,I recently attended the RHCE Rapid Course. I have a small review for everyone here. First like to let everyone know, I have 10+ years in writing c/c++ professionally. The biggest leap I made, if i treated RHEL like a programming environment, everything clicks.
1) Redhat's course is top shelf. Is it worth the money? If you have it, yes.
2) The redhat instructor is A+++. The instructor explained things very elegantly. He is from Canada, but I can't seem to recall his name.
3) Its very fast paced and 95% hands on.
4) The RHCE Rapid book is great, its direct to the point. I wish they had this on PDF.
5) Everything builds on everything. You are constantly build skill by executing things over and over in different scenarios.
How did we do collectively?
1) Majority passed the RHCSA exam, some unfortunately, did not. Most for the same reason, unfortunately, I can not tell why
2) Even fewer passed the RHCE exam. Most ran out of time. I did too, but it was on when I was checking my work. I am glad I did, i found a blatant issue that takes 2 seconds to fix.
I did pass, RHCSA with a perfect score, and RHCE with lots of wiggle room. To be blunt, I had it planned out that I would fail the first attempts and have this month and part of next to re-take it.
So my main question is what is next? I do not have a clear plan what to do next. I spent this weekend thinking on it and researching. I see I do need a good virtualization cert, like VMWare or RHVA (?). I like to take a huge step away from microsoft windows. So let me know what your thoughts are, and maybe I can come up with a plan in a few days.
Warm Regards

Where to take RHCSA in Europe?
Hi,unfortunately I can't take RedHat exams in VUE centers around the world. I did notice they have some test locations in Europe, one of them being in Vienna, Austria which is the closest to where I live but I can't speak any German and their AT website has a broken "Enroll Now" link so I don't know how to take the exam.
I did try the UK website and when browsing for locations I choose Vienna and it returns a bunch of dates but I don't know if those are exam dates or training dates, because the title says: Course Dates and Online Registrations System. Take a look here:
Red Hat Europe
If you accept the TOS and continue it returns:
It costs ?450 so it could be it, but there's no contact info so I can't ask them directly. I don't want to enroll and later find out I'm taking a class or something. RedHat is really not straightforward with this.

Wondering about my RHCSA score...
Hey,This is the first IT vendor certificate exam I ever take. I just got my RHCSA result and I got 250/300 (pass is 210) and I'm confused. I've studied by myself from Michael Jang's book and I don't know what degrees people typically get. Should I feel bad about it? Is it just good enough to pass?
Either way, I'm taking RHCE next.
Cheers folks.
Edit: by the way, somehow I have an odd feeling that I should have gotten more than 250. I'm confused.
Is it wise to learn Redhat 6 now or wait for rehat 7
i am planning to learn redhat to get certificate . as the newer version rehat 7 is around the corner is it wise to start learning redhat 6 now or wait for redhat 7 to get certification .Quote W Stewart Senior Member Join Date Jun 2011 Location Tampa FL Posts 489
Certifications LPIC-1, NCLA, CCNA, Bunch of comptia and CIW certs I don't care about 11-29-2013 09:30 AM #2
I would recommend learning redhat 6. There are still people out there using redhat 4 and 5 as well as other distros altogether. You're not gonna get by in the linux world if you're not capable of adapting to both old and new technologies.
