Todd Brannon, Sr. Director Computing, Cisco, sits down with Dave & Stu at Cisco Live Barcelona 2020 in Barcelona, Spain. #CLEU #Cisco #theCUBE https://siliconangle.com/2020/02/05/ciscos-intersight-hyperflex-advance-data-management-visibility-complex-dynamic-networks-cleur/ Cisco’s solution in Intersight Workload Optimizer To help businesses address the increasing demand for flawless digital experiences within a complex world of applications and multicloud environments, Cisco recently announced a multi-domain approach that connects application and infrastructure teams with full-stack visibility and operational insight in a Kubernetes-based application platform that makes it easier for both DevOps and IT to embrace a multicloud world. A big part of this approach is Cisco Intersight Workload Optimizer, which uses historical and real-time knowledge to proactively flag potential issues, as well as list opportunities to lower costs. Intersight can find the root cause for application degradation no matter where it’s coming from. While Intersight has been around for three years, it’s now shifting from a Cisco focus to a more heterogeneous data-center environment. “That Workload Optimizer software has always been inherently a heterogeneous approach,” Brannon described. “So databases, cloud management platforms, all the hypervisors, operating system, storage partnerships — we’ve been able to do telemetry and interdependency mapping with that in a heterogeneous way for some time.” Intersight is now getting data integration with AppDynamics, an all-in-one monitoring solution for application performance. “Now we correlate those and you get a top to bottom view,” Brannon said. “They kind of get you to where you can see what’s an application, how’s it performing from a business context with AppD, but being able to connect it all the way down into your cloud and on-prem infrastructure — make that correlation and ensure that your infrastructure is doing the right things for the app.” Watch the complete video interview below with Todd Brannon below:
