System Components 
The Cisco Intercloud Fabric solution can be deployed on a wide variety of data center and cloud configurations. 
The supported configurations and versions are listed in the Cisco Intercloud Fabric release notes: 
This document covers the validation using the following data center, cloud, and application configurations: 
● 
Cisco Intercloud Fabric for Business Release 2.2.1 
● 
VMware vSphere
–based private cloud 
◦ 
VMware vSphere 5.5 Update 2 
◦ 
VMware vSphere Distributed Switch (VDS) 
◦ 
Cisco Unified Computing System
 (Cisco UCS
®
) blade servers 
● 
Amazon Web Services (AWS) as the public cloud 
● 
osCommerse e-business application 
◦ 
CentOS 6.4 64-bit system with Apache and PHP (front end) 
◦ 
CentOS 6.4 64-bit system with MySQL database (back end) 
 
Figure 3 shows the high-level architecture of the application deployment. In this design, the application servers are 
deployed in two different network segments (VLANs). A Cisco router (physical or virtual) provides the routing 
between the two application tiers. The back-end MySQL servers are deployed only internally, and the front-end 
Apache and PHP servers are deployed in both the private and public clouds. Cisco Intercloud Fabric is configured 
to securely extend the front-end network segment across the two clouds.
