Micetro - Overlay DDI Orchestration

Abstract

Dealing with disparate DNS, DHCP and IP address management systems is a fact of life for businesses of all sizes. Even for the rare environment that previously had a single on-prem DDI solution, the emergence of cloud services has essentially turned every environment into a mixed, multi- vendor environment. As that network complexity grows, it becomes increasingly important to manage it effectively.

Men&Mice commissioned Tolly to evaluate its Micetro DNS, DHCP, and IPAM (DDI) overlay orchestration solution. The evaluation encompassed the full range of the Micetro offering which includes: DNS, DHCP, IPAM, redundancy, automation, and reporting/troubleshooting.

Tests showed that Micetro’s components were simple to install into an existing, multi-vendor DDI network that included both on-prem and cloud components. Micetro’s orchestration was intuitive and simple to use with its overlay approach providing a single, consistent interface across all the underlying, multi-vendor services.
