3. Cloud Native vs. Enterprise Networks
• Amazon AWS Style v. Enterprise Apps
• Service orientation (Cattle) v. Endpoint orientation (Pets)
• Network requirements
• Reachable IP addresses v. Auto discovered MAC (ARP on VLANs)
• Service orientation further decouples apps from infrastructure
• No VM migration
• No IP Failover
• Good News: Cloud Native apps don’t need layer 2 networks
• Layer 2 networks introduce a lot of SDN complexity
• Bad News: Layer 2 networks provided a convenient way to isolate apps

4. Romana Cloud Native SDN
• Layer 3 based isolation and tenancy model
• Topology-aware addressing
• Embed tenant and segment IDs in IP addresses
• Requires nothing more than standard L3 routing
• Hierarchical design simplifies scalable deployment
• No virtual network required
• Native performance and visibility
• Eliminates overlays

5. Complexity melts away
• No VLANs, VXLANs, VTEP/VNID, OpenFlow, OVS/OVN/OVSDB
• Route aggregation simplifies operations
• Static routing eliminates need for route distribution (BGP, XMPP, KVS)
• Reduces the number of firewall rules (i.e. network v. endpoint)
• Simplifies Operations
• Existing tools, techniques and diagnostics all just work
• Existing security, policy and control systems all work
• Firewalls, IDS, LB, etc., etc., etc.

6. How does it work?
• Assign CIDR length for host (node), tenant and segment
• Example: host 16, tenant 24, segment 28
• On every host, each tenant gets a real physical CIDR
• Tenant can further sub-net for their own private segments
• Configure IP addresses that maintain reachability
• Apply layer 3 firewall rules for network isolation
