7 Connected Workplace Collaborative Work from Anywhere Methodology

8 Cisco Connected Workplace: WLAN + IPT ( + different furniture and culture) Collaborative Office Home Office Space reduction per person: 30% Mobile Office CAPEX for furniture: - 55% INTERNET Prefer environment: + 77% Improved communications: + 82% Workforce satisfaction: + 82% Financials CAPEX for cabling, infrastructure: - 55% Power usage per person: - 58% People 12K 15K 36K employees Home Offices Ease of finding quiet space: at any + time 62% Flexibility, Resilience Performance Ease of finding meeting room: + 80%

9 Mobile / Softphone + Remote Access / Wireless = Productivity + Globalization + Resilience + Cost Savings Video Everywhere Extension Mobility BYOD Services For ios & Android Hardware VPN (always on, wireless) Software VPN Jabber: Soft phone/video Wireless Everywhere

10 Home Office / Small Office: Cisco Virtual Office Supporting home hardware Video phones Voice / video QoS Supporting over 36K Cisco employees Productivity Metrics: CVO users typically work 3 full days at home per week CVO users gain 2 hours 45 minutes productive work hours per week typically spent commuting to/from a Cisco office. 35M commuting miles avoided per year and 17K tons CO2 emissions reduced. Benefit mentioned by new hires

13 The History of Computing The Journey from the Mainframe to the Data Center

14 The Truth is, We ve Come Full Circle

15 Cisco Resiliency Overview A Review of Cisco s Data Center Resiliency & DRP

16 Resiliency What & Why Cisco's Business Continuity Plans (BCPs): Designed to recover critical business processes identified in our Business Impact Analysis. The BIA is used by our CFO to determine financial and non-financial impacts from disruptions to a business function or process. These impacts are measured against time. Resiliency What & Why Service Resiliency Plans (SRPs) focus on recovering IT services that support critical business processes. They are centered on their criticality as identified by the BIA BCP BIA SRP

17 Resiliency Framework Criticality Levels Criticality Definitions - The Service Attribute that describes the Impact to the Business when the Service Is Not Behaving as Required. C-Level Term Impact Description C1 Mission Imperative Any outage that results in immediate cessation of a primary function, equivalent to immediate and critical impact to revenue generation, brand name and/or customer satisfaction; no downtime is acceptable under any circumstances C2 Mission Critical Any outage results in immediate cessation of a primary function, equivalent to major impact to revenue generation, brand name and/or customer satisfaction C3 Business Critical Any outage results in cessation over time or an immediate reduction of a primary function, equivalent to minor impact to revenue generation, brand name and/or customer satisfaction C4 Business Operational A sustained outage results in cessation or reduction of a primary function C5 Business Administrative A sustained outage has little to no impact on a primary function

18 Criticality Matrix Operational Continuity (Planned downtime) Disaster Recovery (Unplanned downtime) Criticality Level Acceptable Recovery Time (hrs) Acceptable Data Loss (hrs) Recovery Time Objective (hrs) Recovery Point Objective (hrs) C1 ~0 ~0 n/a n/a C C C C5 Best Effort 1wk Best Effort 1wk

19 How to Determine RTO (Recovery Time Objective) The RTO is determined based on the six impact types: Financial - Loss of Revenue Financial - Delayed Revenue Customer Service Experience Legal and Regulatory Requirements Brand Image

20 Resiliency Adoption Requirements For IT to Action C1-C2-C3 C4 C5 Not Started Single Prod DC Single Prod DC Single Prod DC Data Protection Data Protection Data Protection? Disaster Recovery Disaster Recovery Metro Pair (MVDC)

21 Introducing Metro Virtual Data Center (MVDC) The First Architecture to Deliver True Operational Continuity DC1 DC2 Failure of a Single-DC leads to full recovery Within the metro pair Any service or critical business process that is MVDC-enabled can automatically recover in the other DC including service failures, application failures, up to and including loss of an entire Data Center

22 MVDC Business Benefits Rapid Service Recovery Within Metro Pair DC1 DC2 Any IT Application or Service that is MVDC-enabled Can Automatically Fail Over and Recover in the Other Data Center Critical business services are designed to run in BOTH data centers at the same time (Active Active), giving very high availability (up to %) Built in protection against unplanned failures of key business services, shared services up to and including an entire data center Built in protection from most planned outages for changes such as upgrades, fixes and releases

23 What Are MVDC Architectures Used At Cisco?? MVDC Metro Virtual Data Center RVDC Regional Virtual Data Center GVDC Global Virtual Data Center

24 High Availability Data Centers Richardson, Texas Allen, Texas ~80 Km Metro Virtual Data Center (MVDC) MVDC is a Logical Pairing of Two (or more) Physical Data Centers Into a Single Virtual Data Center.

25 Distributed Virtual Data Center Architecture & C1 applications Varying distance/latency Distributed Global Variation I: Global Virtual DC (GVDC) supporting C1 apps Presence in two or more continents Clients: Diversified businesses, content, communication and collaboration Examples: DNS, Authentication, Active Directory Cisco.com static content Regional Variation II: Regional Virtual DC (RVDC) aka DR Active from multiple DCs over high latency within one continent Clients: Diversity at low cost Examples: FTP.cisco.com, GDCP Migration, Cisco.com content Metro Variation III: Metro Virtual DC (MVDC) Leveraging Metro-based DC pair + remote DR Clients: Business transactional services Examples: Integrated Commerce Workplace (ICW), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)

52 What is a web application and how does it work? The challenge is to meet Very these Complex, standards but manageable while working a securely, single data cheaply center and seamlessly with few across many applications data centers and with thousands of applications?!?

53 ACI: A Complete Rethink of the Entire Network Based on Three Primary Concepts

54 The ACI Application Network & Security Profile High Level The network & security policy is attached to the application for its entire journey through the network

55 The ACI Application Policy Infrastructure Controller Drilldown

56 How Does A single web application work with ACI?

57 Cisco IT Has Moved to ACI for Speed and Agility through an Adaptive infrastructure is a key enabler for Fast IT Adaptive User Experience: Reduces downtimes for planned changes, and provides resiliency for unplanned outages Adaptive Security: The policy model provides a higher level of network security and simplifies management, as well as a Unified Policy Model for our Hybrid Clouds
