Join us for this podcast where we’ll explore the world of software-defined cloud interconnect (SDCI) with our partner Megaport. We’ll take a deep dive into SDCI and middle-mile optimization of the transport with direct private connection to your hybrid cloud workloads.
 
Cisco’s new SD-WAN Cloud Interconnect integration with Megaport’s Virtual Edge delivers a highly efficient, highly available, and highly secure method to interconnect your enterprise sites and cloud workloads. 
 
Learn how, with a single pane of glass, Cisco SD-WAN Cloud Interconnect offers end-to-end network automation between sites and from site to clouds that’s 99.995% reliable. You’ll also hear how Cloud Interconnect with Megaport helps significantly reduce connectivity costs and total cost of operations when compared to other network connectivity options.

S8|E26 Build a Global Network On-Demand via SDCI

Routed optical networking, part of the Converged SDN Transport Architecture, is a new network paradigm that delivers improved operational efficiencies and simplicity. The solution works by merging IP and private line services onto a single layer where all the switching is done at Layer 3. Routers are connected hop-by-hop with standardized pluggable coherent optics.
 
With a single service layer based upon IP, flexible management tools can leverage telemetry and model-driven programmability to streamline lifecycle operations. This simplified architecture integrates open data models and standard APIs, enabling a provider to focus on automation initiatives for a simpler topology.
