How Cisco IT Deployed Content Networking to Improve Application Performance and Security

Tags:
monitoring systems

Overview By 2003, Cisco had developed a compelling business case for building a single content networking solution that combined the four previously disparate functions. The challenge was in consolidating the complex medley of business and technical needs. After careful review and testing, Cisco IT selected the Cisco Application and Content Networking System (ACNS) Software. Cisco ACNS Software resides on content engines - multifunctional ready-to-use appliances that eliminate the administrative burden and capital costs of deploying dedicated, distributed file and application servers. Cisco IT designed its Cisco ACNS solution with a three-tiered architecture. Content is pushed from a central server to dedicated root content engines, where it is replicated for 13 Tier-2 hub sites.
