The document discusses the Arkin Enterprise Platform, which provides unified visibility and operations across virtual and physical network infrastructure for software-defined data centers. The platform provides end-to-end visibility across VMware NSX virtual layers and underlying physical networks. It tears down traditional IT silos by enabling teams to share a common operations view. Using a consumer-centric approach, the platform allows enterprises to analyze, visualize, and share operational data as easily as searching with Google.
Arkin and VMware NSX Operations
- 1. Arkin Enterprise Platform Visibility and Operations for the Software-Defined Data Center Solutions Brief VMware and Arkin – Modernizing the Datacenter VMware NSX™ is the leading network virtualization platform that delivers the operational model of a virtual machine for the network. A key pillar of VMware’s software-defined data center (SDDC) strategy, VMware NSX™ reproduces the entire network model in software, enabling any network topology—from simple to complex multi-tier networks—to be created and provisioned in seconds. As organizations adopt a software-defined datacenter strategy and virtualize their networks with VMware NSX™, network operational visibility across the virtual and physical layers is paramount. Operations teams need to adapt to the new world of networking - not sitting in defined silos, pointing and laying blame when problems occur. Arkin and VMware are working together to provide a new, modern operations approach for the next generation of networks. A new operational model, that provides unprecedented visibility across the virtual and physical layers and breaks the traditional IT silos. Highlights • Real-time operational analytics for your VMware NSXTM networking and security infrastructure • Cross-silo visibility across physical and virtual layers • Google-Search like simplicity to rapidly identify and resolve issues
- 2. Network Virtualization and the Need to Modernize Network virtualization has set a new standard in enabling faster network service provisioning and simplified operation. This breakthrough customer benefit must be matched with a new model for data center operations. For example, operating a virtual network cannot be separated from the operations of a physical one; they need to be combined, along with compute and security, crossing all the traditional silos. The data center is evolving at a rapid pace; it’s time to give operations a makeover. A cross-silo operations model, with a seamless transition path for existing operations teams is mandated; one that is free of re-training, re- certification and leverages existing skills. Arkin – The Modern Datacenter Solution The Arkin Enterprise Platform was designed from the ground up with one guiding principle – provide unified and simple operations for data center silos - virtual and physical, compute, network and security. Using a consumer-centric approach to an enterprise problem, the Arkin Enterprise Platform enables organizations to analyze, visualize and share network and security operational data as easily as a Google search. Key Benefits No more invisible layers The Arkin Enterprise Platform provides end-to- end visibility from your virtual NSX layers to your underlying physical layer No more silos The Arkin Enterprise Platform tears down IT silos as operational teams come together and share one common operations view No more training The Arkin Enterprise Platform enables IT teams to operate the new infra- structure without additional training and certifications
