1 Internet Peering as a Cloud enabler for Enterprises Lionel MARIE Network architect Schneider Electric lionel.marie@schneider-electric.com Board Member France-IX lionel@franceix.net

2 Schneider Electric at a Glance We are the global specialist in energy Management and efficiency technologies Balanced geographies FY 2013 revenue 1 billion revenue (FY ) of sales devoted to R&D North America 25% Rest of World 20% Western Europe 28% Asia Pacific 27% of revenue in new economies (FY ) Balanced end markets FY 2013 revenue 1 Utilities & Infrastructure 27% Industrial & Machines 25% Data centres & networks 14% people in 100+ countries Non-residential and Residential buildings 34% 1 :Pro-forma basis including LTM Sep 2013 revenue from Invensys 2

3 The Big Picture Nordic remote zone sites SSL VPN mobile users Data Center Riverbed devices 4 global data centers + several data rooms EMEA WAN 2 MPLS / MAN telcos + domestic networks in APAC Full control on Network CoS France / QoS (MPLS / MAN) USA Full WAN acceleration, end to end Global WAN Full network visibility using NPM India China Singapore UK Japan 2 centralized Internet break-outs, 150+ local break-outs Ireland Austalia 3

4 And then came the cloud Network guy (me ) 4

5 Schneider Electric and the Cloud 5

6 Cloud vs. WAN Connectivity Schneider Corporate Network Guaranteed network latency Class of service prioritization for critical applications WAN acceleration, reducing traffic volumes by 75% End-to-end network visibility Cloud Connectivity via the Internet No commitment on latency No control on network paths No bandwidth reservation No end-to-end QoS 6

7 Internet usage in large companies Legacy Internet Usage Informational / research / personal s / some DMZ Centralized and / or local Internet access Costly transit providers with poor capacity planning Shared network equipments: firewall, proxies, à Commodity access with no SLA on performances 7

8 Internet usage in large companies Emerging Internet Usage Personal traffic is increasing: social networks, video Centralized Internet access consumes MPLS bandwidth Internet is used to access business critical applications SaaS: Salesforce, Office 365, Lync, Webex, Box.net, IaaS: Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, HP, Oracle, à Internet access becomes as critical as MPLS 8

9 Use case #1: IaaS 9

10 A powerfull IaaS offer for Virtual Private Clouds Seen as virtual rooms connected to our data centers 400 VMs deployed so far, hosting mostly Intranets By default, IPsec connectivity toward Amazon Challenge: how to provide MPLS-like connectivity? 10

11 The challenge of moving applications into a Virtual Private Cloud Peering Internet IPsec 11

12 Amazon as a first trigger to create our peering policy in Europe Mb/s Transit traffic vs. peering traffic Internet Direct Connect ISP #1 IXP IXP ISP #2 Cost of IP transit = 5400 / month Cost of IP peering = 1200 / month

13 Use case #2 : SaaS 13

14 Salesforce is a (big) monolithic Cloud: not distributed Schneider Electric is their biggest EUR customer Used for CRM, ordering process, CTI / Customer care Worldwide roll-out: EUR, US, APAC (oops ) Challenge: how to improve Salesforce performances? 14

15 Dedicated connectivity toward Salesforce with WAN acceleration Internet Secured network latency (SLA) Dedicated bandwidth (SLA) Secured data communications NA7 - WAS End-to-end WAN optimization and network visibility Network performances not guaranteed??? ms 30ms 40-50ms US ms 80ms??? ms ms!!! (Jitter) APAC??? ms 190ms EUR MPLS MPLS MPLS 15

16 Global peering policy 16

17 Global Peering Policy In Europe and US Direct connectivity IXP1 IXP2 Centralized Internet Access MPLS 17

18 What have we learnt? Educate people and show them how Internet is built Prepare to split network ressources and Dedicate ressources: network devices, network links Internet peering is your friend! Know your traffic: network visibility is key à No Network, no Cloud! 18

19 The next steps Reinforce our private connectivity (LAM, Russia, ) Connect to APAC Internet exchange Points Deal more peering agreements Rethink our IP transit policy to better connect to the Cloud and to better connect Internet to our Cloud. 19
