Cisco Spark Hybrid Media service

Richard Murphy Technical Marketing Engineer

BRKCOL-1120
Abstract
Cisco Spark is a constantly evolving cloud platform with innovation happening in the
cloud and on the Cisco Spark app. Have you ever thought about the communication
path and the impact it has on your network? Presently all point to point and multipoint
calls will meet in the cloud increasing your Internet bandwidth requirements. How
would you like to alleviate this problem by having meetings on premise?

This session is designed to be an introductory session on the new Cisco Spark

Hybrid Media Service. It will discuss a brief overview of Cisco Spark. What is the
Hybrid Media Node and why do I need it in my organization? What are the
requirements for installation, installation procedure, configuration and management in
your organization? What are architecture considerations for adding Hybrid Media
Service and general call flows involving the Hybrid Media Node.

 Hybrid Call Service
Hybrid Call Service Call Service Aware
Call Service Connect

Call Service Aware - makes Cisco Spark aware of all calls across your Unified
Communications (UC) system, thus enabling the automatic creation of a one-to-one room
whenever a point-to-point call is placed between two Spark users on their on-premises
registered endpoints. This one-to-one room provides capabilities such as Zero Touch
Meetings, which allow simple screen sharing between the two users. Call Service Aware
also provides a unified call history; the Spark client shows missed and placed calls even if
the client was not running at the time the call occurred.

Hybrid Calendar Service
Hybrid Calendar Service: This service allows any Cisco Spark customer to enable
scheduling of WebEx meetings with an automatically created and associated Cisco Spark
space. By adding @Spark to the location field of the Exchange appointment, all attendees
of the appointment are automatically added to the Cisco Spark space. With @WebEx in
the location field, the details of the WebEx personal meeting room of the inviting user are
automatically added to the invitation sent for the appointment.

Hybrid Media Service Reports enables administrator to understand the trend
of their on premise resource capacity and utilization, as well as availability that
impacts capacity.

These trend reports help the administrator to determine if calls are overflowing
to the cloud because of call volume, insufficient on premises capacity, or
because of some other problem.

The trend reports will help the administrator to determine if additional capacity
is needed in a cluster.

These reports are not real-time dashboards. Data is aggregated every 10 min
and displayed in the reports.

Reports page is auto refreshed every 5 minutes
