On Prem Networks
-
Follow an architecture
-
On Prem was slow/applications needed to be deployed faster
-
DevOps moved to cloud
Reinventing Network and Security Architecture for Cloud
-
VMware was able to virtualize servers, and run applications on a virtual machine, however this was still On Prem
-
People moved to public cloud but there was an architectural gap
-
Aviatrix provides the architecture, MCNA, to help deploy applications
IaaS, PaaS, SaaS
On Prem (physical/virtual)
-
Underlay, hardware, software, day0, day1 and day 2, everything is the user’s responsibility
Infrastructure as a Service
-
CSP’s manage hardware, software, storage, and networking
-
Users are responsible for running the virtual machines and patching the O/S
Platform as a Service
-
Users only consume as a platform
-
CSP’s manage everything, you only manage applications and data
Software as a Service
-
Users consume the service
-
All aspects managed by CSP’s
What is Hybrid Cloud?
-
Cloud connectivity with On-Prem DC
Public Cloud Basics
-
Known to be resilient, highly available, multiple regions
-
Just as data centers have issues, the CSP’s data centers have issues as well
-
Users however have no control/visibility of these issues
Data Center
-
Cloud service providers use data centers to house cloud services and cloud-based resources
Region
-
Data centers are grouped in regions and geographic areas to provide regional service availability
Availability Zone
-
Distinct locations within the cloud provider’s network that are engineered to be isolated from failures
Public Cloud Network vs. On-Prem DC
-
Public Cloud Network tries to provide the same services as the On-Prem DC
-
Provides concept of VPC (virtual private cloud)
-
The most important part of the VPC is the application/virtual machine
-
Virtual machines are sitting on different subnets, so they need a routing entity
-
Some security constructs are provided but are often very primitive
-
VPC required connectivity to internet (sends traffic to internet)
-
Users coming in/trying to get access to virtual machines
-
Private link to connect to data center needed
-
Limitations
-
100 BGP route limit in AWS-TGW
-
No routing controls
-
No service insertion
-
Poor visibility
-
