The upcoming Technical Community Forum will focus on Virtualisation Experience Infrastructure (VXI). We will take a closer look at how Cisco's Data Centre, Borderless Networks and Collaboration Architectures allow customers to move from traditional Virtual Desktops with separate Video, Voice and Data to a fully integrated experience on one infrastructure.


The TCF's will cover the following:

  • How each of Cisco architectures compliment VXI and discussion on the current and future roadmap for Data Centre, Borderless Networks and Collaboration Architectures
  • The phased approach to allow customers to move to an integrated VXI Video & Voice and Virtual Desktop Experience
  • Demonstrations of the VXI solution in action
  • Architectural blueprints for VXI based on validated designs with industry leading partners such as EMC, Netapp, Citrix, VMWare, WYSE, Atlantis and Appsense.

Borderless Networks

Cisco's new innovations in Video, Security and Management

During the webcast we learnt how Cisco solutions and services can further enhance your network's ability to meet the needs of the emerging borderless organisation, connecting anyone, anywhere, anytime and with their preferred device, securely, reliably and seamlessly.

These new innovations will enable your organisation to innovate and improve its IT efficiency by:

  • Enhancing organisational agility, securing and enabling a wider variety of devices with new multimedia innovations.
  • Increase workplace efficiencies with collaboration and productivity tools that let you take advantage of more business opportunities.

The Technical Community Forum's interactive sessions discussed these innovation announcements and a technical deep dive into the new solutions.

Data Centre

Delivering architectural flexibility in the Data Centre to support any workload, any application and any location, in a simple, scalable and secure manner.

Cisco pioneered the vision of Ethernet-based "Unified Fabric" within the Data Centre over three years ago. Subsequently Cisco introduced Unified Computing and Unified Network Services, all of which have formed the building blocks for Cisco's Data Centre Business Advantage framework.

At the TCF seminars we learnt how Cisco can help your organisation to break through traditional business compromises and engage with your customers in new ways by increasing IT agility whilst at the same time reducing cost.

Collaboration

Organisations are being forced to manage a broad range of business complexities: information and content overload, communication/application silos, an increasingly mobile and dispersed workforce, accelerating innovation and time to market and, of course, driving sustainable growth in an increasingly competitive environment.

Employees continue to bring new devices, applications and ways of working into the business because they've grown accustomed to using them in their personal lives, causing security and integration issues.

These kinds of challenges require organisations to change the way they work; from the transaction-oriented era of the last decade, to a more interaction-oriented era, which is why collaboration has become more critical than ever.

At the Technical Community Forum on Collaboration we learned how Cisco's solutions can help your organisation address these challenges.

Borderless Networks 3

At the Technical Community Forum we heard about the new innovations and services from Cisco and learned how to connect partners, customers, and employees securely, reliably, and seamlessly - anywhere, anytime, on any device.

In this in-depth session on the latest Borderless Networks launch, we announced new enhancements to the 4500, 6500 Switching products and new wireless Access Points. To meet the challenges of connecting many different branches and customers we have developed a new routing platform the ASR1000 as well as enhancements to the ISR G2 which will help our customers deliver virtual services to the branch.

Security was also a major focus of this session announcing the new ASA 5585X which is the most powerful Cisco firewall to date, as well as enhancements to the Anyconnect solutions to allow users on mobile and remote devices connect securely to the network from where ever they are.

Transformation of the Data Centre with Cisco Unified Computing

At the Technical Community Forum events we looked at benefits of Unified Computer and customer use cases, the migration from legacy architectures to Unified I/O and the optimal designs many customers are already using.

In this in-depth session on the architecture of the system, we explored white board deployment options, and provided demonstrations of the management options.

Architectural blueprints for the Virtual Private Cloud with UCS and industry leading partners such as EMC, Netapp, and VMWare were also discussed.

Borderless Networks

Borderless Networks, a Cisco next-generation architecture, delivers the new workspace experience, connecting anyone, anywhere, using any device, to any resource - securely, reliably, seamlessly.

These sessions took a close look at new Routing and Switching platforms, delivering secure access and operational excellence. We discussed Cisco's latest innovations in energy efficiency and management and explored some of the exciting new functionality in areas of video delivery, ubiquitous mobile connectivity and policy based access control.
