• About AVG
• Issues & Troubles
• AVG Goals
• The Chosen Solution
• Benefits
3. About AVG Technologies
• internet security, performance optimization, and personal privacy and
identity protection applications
• top global antivirus company
• over 202 million active users used AVG´s software products and services
• products distributed over 100 countries
4. AVG Issues & Troubles
(Where we started)
• IT Silos (different departments, technologies, domain specialists)
• Manual deployment processes
• Impossible to make frequent changes
• Vendor specific technologies (VMware, Cisco, etc.)
• Insuficcient APIs
• Legacy virtualize architecture with VMware vCenter, VLANs and Fibre
Channel
• Very limited time for the innovations
5. AVG Goals
• Remove Vendor Lock-in
• Reuse current Hardware Infrastructure with minimum intial costs
• Automate internal deployment processes (speed and complexity)
• Self-service tool for application life cycle management
• Robust Automation & Orchestration
• Seamless On-Demand Capacity Fulfillment
• Adopt Open Source Solutions based on OpenStack

8. Key Criterias - Why OpenContrail?
• Licensing – open source solution with possibility to
buy commercial support
• High Availability – native HA support is the most
important criterium
• Cloud Gateway Routing – Nord-South must be routed
on physical Edge Routers
• Performance – pps, bandwith, scalability, etc. (9.6
Gbps)
• Interconnection between SDN and Fabric –
dynamically connection legacy world
• Physicall F5 integration – LBaaS Heat resources
9. AVG PoC findings
• Live Migration VM
• Production instances booted from volume – Hitachi VSP driver
• Automatic DNS registration
• OpenContrail DNS – Virtual, Tenant
• Glance image repository stored at EMC NFS
• Heat orchestration
