Application Engineered Routing Segment Routing and the Cisco WAN Automation ...Cisco Service Provider
The Cisco® Application Engineered Routing solution provides end-to-end control over how the network infrastructure transports applications. In the past, dedicated clusters of servers would deliver specific applications, but the number and diversity of applications continue to increase as the infrastructure becomes more converged.
Traffic patterns are dynamically changing and new applications come with specific transport requirements. Combining Segment Routing (SR) with the Cisco WAN Automation Engine (WAE) provides the necessary intelligence to optimize network resources and make informed decisions dynamically, helping to ensure a consistent, high-quality customer experience.
This white paper describes SR and the Cisco WAE and highlights how they work together to deliver an intelligent, dynamic, highly optimized network.
Research Highlight: Independent Validation of Cisco Service Provider Virtuali...Cisco Service Provider
Service providers want to know how they can build and run programmable, intelligent, responsive, efficient, flexible, and highly secure yet open networks with a high degree of automation. They want to be able to configure and activate new services quickly, utilize emerging cloud capabilities, and meet customer needs. Nimble, smart innovators in the global communications and networking industry are working on the answers and coming up with solutions every day. But providers need to know if these next-generation technologies can already meet their requirements today
In the world of service providers and networks, the demand for new and better services continue to grow, while the networks must expand and quickly adapt to these demands. One way that operators are evolving their network is to adopt some of the latest technologies like NFV (network functions virtualization). Infonetics recently found that 35 percent of the worldwide telecom carriers they surveyed are planning to deploy NFV in 2015. They are doing this because they believe that NFV and its SDN (software-defined networking) architecture will deliver benefits in service agility and new revenue, operational efficiencies and capex savings. Finding new ways to build revenue paths out of the network is critical for operators today as they innovate to find new sources of revenues.
Operators have been looking to Policy to help them find new ways to find value in their network. Specifically, they need a policy platform which can help them quickly adapt to build new services and even new networks for other operators or enterprises. We are now announcing the availability of Cisco Policy Suite version 7.5 for download. With it, operators will benefit from NFV-based policy enforcement and new access selection technologies. These new capabilities are enabling service providers to not only use policy software to open new services and markets, but they are also providing policy to the handset to ensure the best access method for the end user.
Deploy New Technologies Quickly with Cisco Managed Services for Service Provi...Cisco Service Provider
Service providers’ businesses and operations are undergoing major changes. New initiatives, like IP convergence, cloud, software-defined networks and network virtualization, are driving new business models. These initiatives are also creating opportunities for new revenue streams and greater efficiencies. Speed, agility and flexibility are required for fast access to IT and new applications. Now is the time to invest effort and resources in figuring out how to make this opportunity work for you. You have a chance to disrupt rather than being disrupted.
Segment routing is a network technology focused on addressing the pain points of existing IP and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) networks in terms of simplicity, scale, and ease of operation. It’s a foundation for application engineered routing because it prepares the networks for new business models where applications can direct network behavior.
Segment routing seeks the right balance between distributed intelligence and centralized optimization and programming. It was built for the software-defined networking (SDN) era.
Segment routing enables enhanced packet forwarding behavior. It enables a network to transport unicast packets through a specific forwarding path, other than the normal shortest path that a packet usually takes. This capability benefits many use cases, and you can build those specific paths based on application requirements.
Segment routing uses the source routing paradigm. A node, usually a router but it can also be a switch, a trusted server, or a virtual forwarder running on a hypervisor, steers a packet through an ordered list of instructions, called segments. A segment can represent any instruction, topological or service-based. A segment can have a local semantic to a segment-routing node or global within a segment-routing network. Segment routing allows you to enforce a flow through any topological path and service chain while maintaining per-flow state only at the ingress node to the segment-routing network. To be aligned with modern IP networks, segment routing supports equal-cost multipath (ECMP) by design, and the forwarding within a segment-routing network uses all possible paths, when desired.
Cisco Virtual Managed Services: Transform Your Business with Cloud-based Inn...Cisco Service Provider

Cisco cBR-8 Evolved CCAP: Deliver Scalable Network and Service Growth at a Lo...Cisco Service Provider
An explosion of new over-the-top (OTT) video services and consumer devices is placing huge demand on cable access networks. To compete for new customers and retain the loyalty of existing ones, multiple system operators (MSOs) will need to expand capacity substantially, rolling out new services and gigabit tiers.
As they strive to meet insatiable market demand and stay competitive, MSOs are looking at significant access network capital expenditures (CapEx) increases over the next 5 years - and steadily rising operating expenses (OpEx) due to higher power costs and a larger network footprint. But current integrated Cisco® Converged Cable Access Platform (CCAP) solutions are limited to supporting only 24 to 32 channels per service group, and they are not designed to support DOCSIS® 3.1 at scale. Using these platforms, MSOs would need to significantly increase CapEx spend in order to compete with gigabit billboard rates and keep pace with growth.
Alternatively, MSOs can use the Cisco cBR-8 Converged Broadband Router, a full-spectrum CCAP-compliant platform that is designed to support DOCSIS 3.1. The Cisco cBR-8 enables cable operators to offer multigigabit broadband and Internet of Everything (IoE) services, and provide a path to virtualization. It empowers MSOs to scale economically to deliver more capacity and best-in-class services with much lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
This white paper examines the consumer trends affecting cable access networks and the projections for how the network and services will evolve in the coming years. It provides a long-term economic analysis of an evolved access network using the Cisco cBR-8, compared with competitive Advanced Telecommunications Computing Architecture (ATCA) platforms. And it demonstrates how MSOs will be able to meet capacity and service demands over the next several years at a 40-percent savings in hardware, space, and power costs.

Editor's Notes
Adoption DynamicsSimple Bus Process: Managed (App) Hosting => SaaS applications (HR, Fin, …) to reduce unit cost and improve mobilityDevelopment:SOA => Public & Private I/PaaS to improve speed, cost of developmentWeb:Web Hosting (incl. e-comm)=> Use Public IaaS / PaaS to drive elastic web presenceNext Gen Workplace: Desktop Mgmt & Comms => Use VDI, UC&C, SaaS Desktop Appsto improve functionality, security & costBig Data & Sim:Enterprise Grid => Public IaaS Platformsto dynamically deploy algorithmsIT Efficiency – CIO: IT Mgmt & Automation => Private Cloud + Classify applications into cloud migration pathFinancial – CFO: IT Outsourcing => Impose on-demand sales paradigms on IT vendors – while retaining control over IT
Approach of Value Chain Not only looking at cloud computing through the lens of the IPS stack (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS)Analyze the wide range of roles cloud providers play in the end-to-end cloud value chain.Activities from left to right: Infrastructure – Facility – Systems Infra SW (OS, Virtualizationà – Apps Dev & Deploy (App Servers) – Application – Presentation / AccessExamples: PaaS Providers: Deliver services to end-users and SaaS providers alike. Can either be customers of IaaS providers or run their own IT infrastructures. IaaS player Offering SaaS enablement, for example, has a different value proposition from a IaaS player that serves enterprises directly. Can use own facility and network or take advantage of colocation centersAdvantages of approach of taking into account this complexity Generate more insights about the role of cloud computing in the IT value chain Allows participants to better understand their unique position when drafting GTM strategies

Incumbents being disrupted by new playersIncumbents: slowed by cannibalization Newcomers: BTE is reduced (cost down through IaaS / PaaS, new channels through brokers)Today SaaS is Disruptive in ~25% of the Software MarketUsual suspects: CRM, HR, Fin Mgmt, CollaborationMobile Access will Accelerate SaaS Adoption in new Application Segments Second Wave of Consumerization: Mobile Apps in Personal Life => Mobile Apps at work Previously, mobile access to applications was limited, mainly by small screens Mobile application access accelerated through introduction of Tablets Key Challenge for CIO: Delivering Apps to any device Adapt SW to mobile platforms (RIM, iOS, Android) and form factors is difficult / time consuming => often done poorly in-house SaaS eases the adaptation of Apps for Mobile: many SaaS apps come with mobile SaaS is being accelerated by the need for mobile access Graph Right: Correlation between % Mobile workers & No SaaS ImplementationsQuote – Mobility key factor in SaaS choiceImportant for NSP: SaaS players / ISV’s are big users of I/PaaS Enabling Mobility (incl. QoS) is key for SaaS providers and users Obviously, one of the next battlefields will be UC&C
Idea of on-demand development and runtime environments not new Developers key decision makers from the beginning. Advantages obvious: automation of activities like scaling, resource allocation, data management, and failover Until now, PaaS has been the “little brother” in the IPS stack Lock-In generally mentioned as main inhibitor Over the past year, a lot of activity to reduce the lock-in concern: Update Azure SDK to simplify Internet information services (IIS) application migration.Leading PaaS platforms can be run across multiple hosted and internal DC’s Fujitsu offers Microsoft Azure across public and private cloudsCloud Foundry which is an open source solution that can run in any DC.Open-PaaS paradigm of RightScale automates development, but transparent to usersOver the past year, trend of more PaaS importance clear: Fast growth of the main PaaS platforms—Windows Azure, Google App Engine, and Force.com. Significant investment activity in PaaS startups. In 2011 aloneCloudBees $10.MStanding Cloud $3MDotCloud $10MAppFog $8MImportant for NSP: Understand developer requirements Look for PaaS partnerships
Battle Rages across Hosted & Internal IaaSSomewhat arbitrary Split: Vertical Axis Web Grade (Credit Card, Opensource Hypervisor / Automation, DAS, Commodity) Enterprise Grade (Contract, vmware, Commercial ITSM, SAN / NAS, High-EndBoth these approaches get implemented across Internal and Hosted IaaS (Horizontal Axis)Examples: Public IaaS: Amazon / GoGrid (automated web hosting functions) Enterprise Grade IaaS: Savvis, Terremark (Virtual) Private Cloud – beyond web hosting Internal Enterprise Grade: Mosanto (built internal cloud on BMC software stack) Internal Commodity Cloud: Bechtel (SaaS paradigm, in own DC)Early Adoption (current state) Hosted: Web Grade (Public IaaS) has taken an early start (at least 4 x bigger) Internal: generally stick to Enterprise Grade
Our expectation is that Infrastructure Services are on a fast growth trajectory. A couple of key dynamics will underpin this growth.Take the Graph back, and look at a couple of dynamics that will shape the market1. Cloud Enable 30+ Web Hosting Companies (Current Analysis) Web Hosting market very fragmented (10k’s no cloud) Increasing maturity of cloud enablers: makes it easy to implement Open Source (openstack) Investments (nimbula, eucalyptus in 2011) Acquisitions (Citrix Cloud.com, DidataOpsource)2. Enterprise Grade Cloud attract increasingly critical workloads Double dynamic: (a) increasingly critical workloads; (b) increasingly quality Public Cloud => Will enterprises pay premium for enterprise grade ? IDC vs. Forrester: very different conclusions IBSG expects enterprise grade to continue strong growth: SLA’s top of CIO mind Technology Investments (Cisco acquired Tidal, Newscale, Linesider = CloudVerse) Telco Acquisitions (VzB Terremark, Centurylink Savvis, DidataOpsource)3. Standardization of IaaS Platforms enables Hybrid Cloud Leading Platforms becoming de-facto standards (AWS, Cloud.Com, Joyent, CIAC, Eucalyptus) Making it easier to manage workloads across internal and hosted Commodity Example: Zynga Cloud (online gaming platform) built on AWS, Cloud. Com, Rightscale Enterprise Grade: driven by on-site managed services (F4B)Important for NSP: Web-Grade & Enterprise Grade are different GTM strategies / segments Both will be important – e.g. Savvis CTO: “Don’t go play with Amazon” Be ready to drive hybrid cloud: manage workloads across internal and public DC’s
With extensive CloudBuild-Out: the role of MTDCs (“colocation”) & WANs is changing. (people look to reduce facility cost and improve application delivery)In this environment, two cloud facility implementation strategies are emerging: (1) the mega exchanges, which provides network choice (2) on-net cloud, with end-to-end value propositionThese approaches often compete for the same business .Mega Exchanges Network exchanges (e.g., Equinix) double as multi-tenant DCs (MTDCs) Obvious benefit of sharing the cost of DC facilities Choice: interconnect cloud providers with any private network providerBring cloud DCs and enterprise DCs (that use these facilities) closer together. According to Equinix / TelX: network effect - bring together eco-systems (e.g., finance, media) Probably: larger enterprises, play cross-border and cross-NSP, will benefit: pricing power On-Net Cloud Bundles and integrates cloud services with Ethernet and IP-VPN networks(Many SPs and enterprises are very receptive, see previous research papers) Guarantees on performance, availability and security with “one-throat-to-choke.”APM and Layer 2 domains across WANs and DCs, easing resource mgmt across DC / Cloud resources across hosted and internal DCs. Probably: network-centric workloads (e.g., UC), and for SMBs / Mid-Market Enterprises that appreciate ease Important for NSP’s: “On-Net Cloud” is a valuable strategy But users will look for real value add vs. network choice
COMMERCIAL ACTIVITIES AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICESEverybody wants to be a brokerShift from classic resale to cloud brokerage Cloud Brokerage is creating Market place: bring buyer + seller of cloud services together together A lot of software enablers coming on the market: listed a couple Generally focus on SaaS Brokerage – with Catalogue, Self Service, Billing, Reporting - But increasingly value add Lowering Barriers to Entry for potential Cloud Brokers => A lot of candidates: “Everybody wants to be a cloud broker” Just this week: Deutsche Telecom launched their platform I also need to add governments (UK has launched an AppStore) Expected to get fast adoption – Scale is key to attract customers and providers. But not sure who has the best position to attract the needed scale.Important for NSP: Store is important, to pull the cloud value proposition together Expect a low margin business (IT distribution typically is)Use commercial brokerage platforms to launch quicklyNeed to differentiate through unique NSP assets: QoS, channels, Telco, Billing
Notes on Slide Creation:This needs a review – the right graph does not contribute to the end-to-end story---------------------Professional Services: An important hurdle to private cloud computingCreating hurdles for Private CloudLarge part of TCO for Private CloudIncreases the cost difference of Private vs. PublicPS TransformationFocus on interconnection of pre-defined modules (no creation of modules)Less invasive interactions/
