Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (Cisco ACI)

Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (Cisco ACI) helps us to use our cloud servers. We connected our servers to them. We use vlanx over them. We work with two companies as one, so we have two environments but manage them together over Cisco ACI. It helps to connect our different servers from different companies to each other.

Pros

  • Easier management
  • Multi domain and site usage

Cons

  • Better user experience
  • Easy configuration
  • More complicated connections
We use Cisco Nexus Series Switches on Cisco ACI. It helps to make new and easy connections. It will better if we can use Generative Artificial Intelligence with them. We manage many domains in one place. We manage more than one company’s network, so Cisco ACI is really helpful. It is better to use because of management on GUI
We made multi site and multi pod at same time. We connect different data centers easily. It is good to managed over 90 devices on one GUI. We can make connections in a easy way. We use script for configuration. And we can make configuration on all device in a row.
We manage all networks from one place with Cisco ACI. We do not configure switches or routers one by one. So, we use policies and AAEPs. With one AAEP, we configure too many ports on many switches. We also use Virtual port channels on our network. Also, we like these parts of Cisco ACI.
