Implementing UCS/ACI Deployments with Cisco Action Orchestrator

Interconnecting devices is ultimately designed to allow for access to resources that can actually “do something”, e.g. the compute portion of a network. Provisioning and managing these devices and their connectivity is key to an end-to-end solution. Cisco UCS (Unified Computing System) and Cisco ACI (Application Centric Infrastructure) allow an organization to fully manage their data center resources. With extensive API support, these platforms can be integrated into a variety of solutions. In this session, we will be introduced to how both platforms can be integrated together as part of a multi-domain solution in Cisco Action Orchestrator.

  • Is Your ASA Actually Doing What You Expect? Apr 2 2020 3:00 pm UTC 60 mins
    Nick Russo, Technical Leader, Cisco Systems
    The core concepts surrounding DevOps and infrastructure-as-code have permeated into the network automation over the past several years. Some of you have probably employed these techniques to automate your firewall policy configurations in production. Often times, the administrator will poke holes in their firewalls to enable critical applications to function, but how often do we explicitly test the effectiveness of our rulesets? To address this gap, I've written a Python-based tool using Nornir and Netmiko that can rapidly test distributed Cisco ASA deployments for policy compliance. This session explores how the tools work in-depth.

  • Demystifying Cisco Orchestrators for Infrastructure as Code Recorded: Mar 5 2020 49 mins
    Tony Dubiel, DevOps/Automation Lead for GES, Cisco Systems
    By automating the software development lifecycle (code, test, to production) developers and operators (DevOps) are becoming more agile, reducing costs, and delivering a superb customer experience to their customers. Cisco Orchestration solutions extend the benefits of automation to the entire stack by treating each layer of the underlying infrastructure as Code (IaC). Orchestrators reduce the complexity of programmability, operational state, and visibility. In this session, we decode the differences between domain-specific workflow automation versus cross-domain orchestration. As there are many layers in the ‘stack’, achieving a goal of ‘Automate everything’ requires the right tool for the right use case. To that end, we will cover Cisco Cloud Center Suite (Workload Manager and Action Orchestrator), UCS Director, Intersight, and Network Services Orchestrator (NSO). A brief demo will showcase Open Source and Cisco Orchestration tools working hand-in-hand.

  • Watch out SNMP! gRPC is here: Model-Driven Telemetry in the Enterprise Recorded: Feb 6 2020 32 mins
    Jeremy Cohoe, Technical Marketing Engineer, Cisco
    We know the challenges of SNMP with it's UDP transport, limited filtering and encoding options, and the tax to the device CPU and memory resources when multiple tools are polling. Now that gRPC Dial-Out model-driven telemetry is here there are options for migrating to the newer TCP based solution that is supported by YANG data models. These data models make finding specific data points or KPI's easy - the days of analyzing MIB's and OIDs are over.
