ACI is the future of the datacenter infractructure
Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (Cisco ACI)
We are using it as backend for our infrastructure inside of datacenter.
For scope i would say it provides access to every single application within goverment usecase in Slovakia. So every single deppartment is dependent on ACI, cause their applications are running on the servers (bare metal or virtual ESXi,...).

Pros
- Farbric Discovery via LLDP
- System minitoring for EPGs, BDs, ...
- Easy implementation and distribution within ACI infrastructure
Cons
- Simplyfying user experience inside of GUI
- Provide which objects are prerequisit for configuration
- Improved accessibility
- Improved response time
- Easier implementation of new products
In our case, when we have over 50000 users day by day working for goverment which are accessing these application is positive. Response times have been reduced, engineers working with me have easier job of founding issues with the communication via EP tracker.
We are trying to automate as much as possible, mainly things which are used on daily basis. We are using ansible automation for deploying our infrastructure so we can ignore clicking inside of GUI. It helped reduce deploy time of the networks inside the ACI.
