Solution Overview

Cisco Data Center Solutions for Application Networking Services

Cisco’s portfolio of data center solutions for Application Networking Services combine for the first time application control,

performance, and security in a simplified and manageable infrastructure. This approach provides organizations with new

levels of control over the way they deploy, operate, deliver, secure, and manage their applications and business services

across the extended enterprise.

CHALLENGE

The data centers for enterprises and service providers face continual pressure to raise service speed, improve the reliability and quality of service,

and reduce costs. Applications may still be deployed and managed in separate silos across the network where application performance often is a

secondary concern. Organizations use various point products to address the worst challenges in specific locations. And security and regulatory

compliance mandates place further constraints on how IT can react. The IT groups in these organizations need solutions that give them more

control over the application infrastructure, aggregate capabilities to simplify management, and deliver secure and accelerated application service

across the extended enterprise.

To meet these challenges, enterprises and service providers require data-center solutions that:

•

Deploy and migrate applications without adding to the application infrastructure

•

Scale the application infrastructure

•

Have multitier data-center and application security

•

Provide distributed workflow

•

Consolidate functionality, devices, and management

•

Increase application throughput

SOLUTION

The Cisco Application Control Engine (ACE) is a new module for the Cisco Catalyst

6500 Series Switch that enables greater control over

application infrastructure, allowing organizations to deploy and migrate applications more quickly, deliver high levels of service to end users,

and simplify the management and operation of their data centers. Coupled with the new application security updates to the Cisco Application

Velocity System (AVS), Cisco ACE provides an application solution that overcomes the following challenges:

•

Application control—Improving the way IT departments deploy, operate, and manage their application infrastructures

•

Application performance—Helping ensure better service to end users, including scalability, availability, and failover

•

Application security—Helping to protect critical applications, infrastructures, and data abuse and misuse

•

Infrastructure simplicity—Reducing the complexity of the infrastructure, shrinking the number of devices and vendors, better integrating

the network and the application, and lowering the cost of the infrastructure
