Cisco Container Platform (CCP) is a solution that simplifies the deployment and management of containerized applications across multiple clouds. It provides the following benefits to customers who utilize cloud service providers12:
* Allows developers to create code once and deploy to multiple clouds. CCP is based on open source components, such as Kubernetes and Docker, that are compatible with various cloud platforms. This enables developers to write code once and run it anywhere, without worrying about the underlying infrastructure or vendor lock-in. CCP also supports hybrid and multicloud scenarios, allowing customers to leverage the best features of different cloud providers and optimize their costs and performance.
* Manages Kubernetes clusters. CCP automates the installation, configuration, and maintenance of Kubernetes clusters, which are groups of nodes that run containerized applications. CCP provides a simple GUI-driven menu system to deploy clusters, as well as automated monthly updates for bug fixes, feature enhancements, and security patches. CCP also offers a choice of networking solutions, such as Cisco ACI, Calico, or Contiv, to connect and secure the clusters. CCP also integrates with Cisco AppDynamics and Prometheus for visibility and monitoring of the clusters and applications. References:
