Managing Cisco ACI Multisite Deployments with Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator
Short answer
C Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator
Question
Key Takeaways
Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator (formerly MSO) is the central orchestration console for multiple ACI fabrics and sites. Nexus Dashboard is the platform; NDO is the specific app for ACI multisite policy orchestration. NDFC is for DCNM-style LAN/SAN fabric management; NDI is for assurance and analytics.
For a multisite ACI deployment needing a central management console across data centers hosting multiple applications and supporting both hardware and virtual clouds, the product is Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator (NDO), which orchestrates multiple ACI sites with consistent policy.
Common mistake: Picking Nexus Dashboard (A) — that is the host platform, not the multisite ACI orchestration product. Or NDFC (D), which manages individual fabrics, not multisite ACI. The product purpose 'central management console for multiple data centers' = NDO.

joncursio 👍 1 Answered CThis must be NDO as they refer to product - it would be classic cisco if it was just Nexus Dashboard though.
