Cisco says ACI has expanded capacity for multi-site support. To situate this, they review the history of ACI, from a single site/single pod architecture, to a stretch fabric, multiple networks in a single availability zone. Now in ACI 3.0, organizations are able to create multiple availability zones with a single region, and set multi-region policies. This allows for the same level of policy control, but spreads fault domains between sites.
