Abstract
Presented herein are systems and methods to enable simultaneous interoperability with policy-aware and policy-unaware data center sites. A multi-site orchestrator (MSO) device can be configured to obtain configuration information for each of a plurality of different data center sites. The data center sites may include one or more on-premises sites and one or more off-premises sites, each of which may include one or more policy-aware sites and/or one or more policy-unaware sites. The MSO can selectively use namespace translations to create a unified fabric across the different data center sites, enabling one or more hosts and/or applications at a first of the data center sites to communicate with one or more hosts and/or applications at a second of the data center sites, regardless of the sites' respective configurations.
