NSX is a Services Fabric
In this video we examine the challenges with the business process, network architectures, and the cloud impose when it comes to deploying and scaling common data center services. NSX solves the static and monolithic model and provides the ground work to move to the cloud or a cloud operational model.
Neutron in the Enterprise
OpenStack Neutron defines two major types of networks- tenant networks and provider networks. OpenStack administrators must decide what their Neutron network deployment strategy will leverage- tenant networks, provider networks or some combination of the two. This session will describe the unique challenges presented by tenant networks in the private cloud context and will build an argument for why shared provider networks may provide the best Neutron network deployment strategy for enterprise private clouds. This session will also discuss the rationale behind the assertion that network security is now orthogonal to network topology (which if true, is a significant factor leading to the viability of shared provider networks).

NSX Multi-Tenancy
In this video we will cover the NSX multi-tenant capabilities, including IP overlap and re-use, per-tenant services, and per-tenant security policy and isolation.
NSX and Compliance
In this session, Hadar Freehling explains how leveraging NSX can help reduce your audit scope and help you meet your PCI and HIPAA compliance regulations.
NSX – How do I know if I need it or not?
Not all data centers are created equal. Oh sure we believe NSX is the greatest thing since cornbread and chicken. The reality is any product that goes into your data center must be able to increase your efficiency while decreasing your overhead. Join Jimmy Ray Purser as he explains how the NSX Pre-Assessment tool works and how you can justify the need or not for moving towards a Software Defined Data Center. All without having to purchase a single thing! Free is good right?
NSX Security Partner Integration
In this video we will discuss the NSX services platform capabilities, and the integration of security partners. After watching this video, you should be familiar with the security features of NSX and how the integration of security partners can augment those capabilities.
Service Chaining in OpenStack with NSX
Learn how Network Introspection provided by NSX and 3rd party security vendors works with the OpenStack framework. This approach provides more insight and visibility into the application traffic, using the advanced service integration in NSX. For all of this to work, the security team needs to own all controls of the application security policies, which is a very common Enterprise model.
How NSX Uses VXLAN
NSX is referred to as an “overlay” technology but what is actually doing the work on the back end to transfer that data back and forth? VXLAN is the unsung hero protocol moving data in and out of the virtual to the physical side of the house. Join Jimmy Ray Purser as he goes thru the basics of this standards based protocol and what you need to config on your physical network to enable it as well as how it interacts with other network devices.
NSX and Micro-segmentation
In this video I will go over the basic concept of micro segmentation within the datacenter. micro segmentation is a key feature of NSX and a common use case for customers as it allows distinct isolation between servers and their east / west traffic. This is not easily accomplished with traditional hardware firewalls, using NSX creating segmentation rules is simplified and manageable.
Using NSX to make a Virtualized DMZ
Need a more specific use-case to get started with Micro-segmentation and the NSX Distributed Firewall? Your DMZ is an excellent place to start! Why let your blast-area be the entire DMZ network – limit the scope of damage to each individual server. OS-level firewalls are great – but are subject to being disabled once the server has been compromised. NSX, with it’s point of control at the vNIC level, completely gets around that limitation to help reduce your exposure.
