LOGICAL “vPODS” WITH A SINGLE PHYSICAL FABRIC Multi Orchestration Support
5 (c) 2016, BIG SWITCH NETWORKS, INC.
BCF’s orchestration integration allows multiple isolated vCenter instances and/or multiple OpenStack instances in parallel
• Overlapping IPs and VLAN tags across vPods
• Fully distributed Logical System Router enables Shared Services (e.g. storage nodes across vCenters)
Use Cases
• Managed Private Cloud
• Dev/Test Cloud

CHAOS MONKEY RESILIENCE Best in class HA at scale
13 (c) 2016, BIG SWITCH NETWORKS, INC.
Chaos Monkey Testing: 42k simulated End-points/VMs of background load and 640+ forced component failures during the “under stress” test runs
§ 32 leaf / 6 spine / 16 rack pod
§ Controller fail-over every 30 seconds
§ Switch fail-over every 8 seconds
§ Link fail-over every 4 seconds
Conclusion: 640 component failures in 30 minutes with no impact on application performance
