The Cloud Connector technology is based on an open architecture, which enables cloud providers to host their own platforms on the ISR G2, according to Praveen Akkiraju, senior vice president and general manager of Cisco’s services routing technology group. “Cloud storage provider CTERA developed a connector that runs on the ISR G2 that interacts with their storage services in the cloud to understand what’s happening in the network, so that we can optimize the network backup that it initiates,” he said.
