VMware Cloud partners seek to deliver unique value through regional data centers, compliance with local regulations, language and currency support, as well as value-add managed services. In a multi-cloud world, however, customers also require global availability and additional services and scale that is typically only found in hyperscale public cloud portfolios. This white paper builds on the Cloud Provider Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) model for IaaS1 and Modern Application2 offerings, which are detailed in two previously published papers. TCO provides an essential element to generate rich margins from cloud services and can have a critical impact on a VMware Cloud Provider’s profit.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) leads the nation’s effort to understand, manage, and reduce cybersecurity risk, including by supporting Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies in evolving and operationalizing cybersecurity programs and capabilities. CISA’s Zero Trust Maturity Model (ZTMM) provides an approach to achieve continued modernization efforts related to zero trust within a rapidly evolving environment and technology landscape. This ZTMM is one of many paths that an organization can take in designing and implementing their transition plan to zero trust architectures in accordance with Executive Order (EO) 14028 “Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity” § (3)(b)(ii),1 which requires that agencies develop a plan to implement a Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA). While the ZTMM is specifically tailored for federal agencies as required by EO 14028, all organizations should review and consider adoption of the approaches outlined in this document.

The document discusses load balancer design considerations and deployment options in Cisco ACI, specifically with F5 BIG-IP from three aspects: network design, F5 design, and multi-tenant design.

One of the key considerations of the network design with load balancer is to ensure incoming and return traffic go through the same load balancer (one exception is direct server return (DSR), which doesn't have this requirement). There are various options you can use to insert the load balancer. One way is to use the load balancer as a gateway for servers or as a routing next hop for routing instances. Another option is to use Source Network Address Translation (SNAT) on the load balancer or use ACI Policy-Based Redirect (PBR) to make the return traffic go back to the load balancer.

But while efforts to reduce data centre PUE (power usage effectiveness) ratings represent a step in the right direction, PUE isn’t the whole story. For example, it doesn’t capture what is happening at a rack or IT equipment level.
