Through the implementation of Software Defined Networking (SDN) technology, BCR had two key operational objectives: to facilitate seamless migration of servers and applications between the bank&#8217;s data centers and to adopt network micro-segmentation functionalities to enhance security by isolating specific operational zones without requiring server reconfiguration.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the initial phase of the project, Datanet Systems&#8217; specialists, in collaboration with BCR&#8217;s IT team, evaluated the existing infrastructure and functional requirements to define the most suitable technical solution. Based on the evaluation, they created project documentation for a Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) system in a Multi-Site architecture.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>BCR aimed to modernize its entire IT infrastructure, and IP fabric technology has become a de facto standard in data centers. We chose the Cisco ACI SDN solution not only due to the bank&#8217;s history with Cisco products and the trusted relationship we had with Datanet Systems but also for the additional functionalities offered by Cisco, such as micro-segmentation. This feature, along with multifabric, allows us to have much more granular control over the traffic within the data center,<\/em>&#8221; said <strong>Cristian Costina, Head of the Infrastructure and Data Center Management Department, IT Operations Division, BCR.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The project also involved testing, validation, and production implementation phases, ensuring that the solution deployed in the production network delivered the tested level of functionality demonstrated in the pilot network.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<footer><\/footer>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1983\" aria-expanded=\"false\">THE ARCHITECTURE AND STAGES OF THE PROJECT<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1983\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1983\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">THE ARCHITECTURE AND STAGES OF THE PROJECT<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The implemented <strong>Cisco ACI<\/strong> architecture at <strong>BCR<\/strong> consists of independent sets of Cisco APIC controllers placed in each city and orchestrated as a unified entity by the Cisco Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator application. The Cisco Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator provides features such as policy management, disaster recovery, high availability, service provisioning, and monitoring.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One of the advantages of the Cisco ACI Multisite solution applied by the bank is that an issue arising in one site does not propagate to other sites. Although there are extended L2 services between the data centers, the underlay strictly operates as L3. Additionally, there are default mechanisms that prevent uncontrolled L2 traffic between data centers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The adopted solution ensures enhanced redundancy between <strong>BCR&#8217;s data centers in Bucharest and Vienna<\/strong>, with each city having two data centers, all interconnected through Cisco ACI. This was technically achieved by combining Multipod and Multisite technologies, eliminating any single point of failure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The first stage of the current project<\/strong> involved developing an ACI system to facilitate the migration of virtual machines and applications between BCR&#8217;s locations in Romania and Austria without requiring IP address changes for migrated entities. Leveraging the ACI Multisite feature, a Layer 2 network was created, allowing servers to be migrated between the two locations with minimal operational effort, as all network modifications were performed centrally through the Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller (APIC).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The second significant stage of the project<\/strong> focused on using the Cisco ACI system for traffic micro-segmentation within the data network and granular segregation of different environments based on security levels, all without requiring reconfiguration of the bank&#8217;s servers. Additionally, certain categories of traffic were directed to a firewall with strict inspection rules. To prevent the spread of infections through lateral movements, the ACI Endpoint Security Group segmentation functionality was applied.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>The project carried out with Datanet Systems in BCR&#8217;s data centers was highly complex and required skilled human resources to identify optimal technical solutions. The implementation of Cisco ACI for geo-resilience between Bucharest and Vienna went smoothly and led to putting the solution into operation faster than initially planned. The micro-segmentation project was more challenging due to the technology&#8217;s novelty and the emergence of new requirements, but we overcame all obstacles and are approaching the final stages. In the future, we intend to apply micro-segmentation between the two locations in Vienna and Bucharest to further improve the flexibility of the bank&#8217;s IT infrastructure<\/em>,&#8221; stated <strong>Cristian Costina<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1984\" aria-expanded=\"false\">MAIN BENEFITS<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1984\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1984\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><h3>BENEFITS OBTAINED BY BCR<\/h3>\n<p>By transitioning to SDN with Cisco ACI and Datanet services, BCR achieved the following results:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Enhanced application resilience in data centers:<\/strong> BCR has achieved a higher level of application resilience within its data centers. Automatic failover between data centers is now possible in case of any disruptions, such as downtime or performance degradation.<\/li>\n<li>&nbsp;\n<p><strong>Simplified and automated resource allocation<\/strong>: The operations for resource allocation within these data centers have been simplified and automated.
