Implications:Data Center Architecture

Network Nodes(WAN HUB – IP Peering, Fiber, Ethernet & MPLS)

(<100kw)

Aggregation Nodes(Cloud HUB &

NW Core Nodes)(100kw – 1M)

Compute Farms(Cheap power,

non-latency sensitive)(>500kw – 3MW)

Note: Some big data applications have latency performance implications

The CoreSite Open Cloud Exchange

“The data center is at the heart of cloud computing – without carrier-neutral data centers and a place to build Internet exchanges, the Internet,

private networks and cloud computing probably would not exist in their current form."

Ovum 2011

CoreSite is bringing cloud and network communities together

We will scale high-performance hybrid multi-clouds

Summary and Conclusions

Multi-tenant data center architecture has moved front and center within the WAN Secure private network performance matters

Hybrid clouds are quickly becoming the de facto standard and the data center campus is the cloud enabler

Complexity and IT skills are making it necessary for many to seek help from SIs and MSPs
