Zoom’s cloud hybrid strategy has arrived, extending the Zoom cloud to enterprise infrastructure and helping to unify existing and future Zoom hybrid solutions for standardized deployment and operation.
Zoom Node is a central hub for hosting Zoom workloads — or modules — that provide Zoom functionalities, such as meetings or calling. It’s optimized to help address customer requirements in the areas of compliance, security, survivability and bandwidth optimization. Zoom Node and the service modules it supports are deployed on premises but managed from the Zoom cloud, effectively extending Zoom cloud functionality to customer data centers.
Turn-key hardened appliance architecture with bundled OS, managed by Zoom
Unified management via the Zoom web portal and Zoom Node dashboard
Managed automatic updates and patching
Integrated cloud-based alerting and logging
Full audit-logging of all administrative activities
Centralized log management and cloud log relay
Service modules are service-specific Zoom workloads such as Zoom Meeting or Zoom Chat, that run on Zoom Node locally. These service modules are managed through the Zoom Web portal. Each Zoom Node is capable of supporting up to four service modules.
The Zoom Phone Local Survivability (ZPLS) module allows organizations to maintain certain Zoom Phone services within the organization even if internet connectivity is lost.
The Zoom Phone Local Survivability module capacity limits are as follows (dependent on hardware configuration):
Internal Extension Dialing
Contact Search/Dialing
Dial From Call History
Hold/Resume Call
DTMF
Blind/Consult Transfer
Ad hoc 3-Party Conference
Full Extension dialing with Site Code
Inbound/Outbound PSTN calling support (requires SBC)
Call Park
Zoom Node Meetings Hybrid is a service module that enables you to keep meeting media within your premises for compliance, enhanced security and improved bandwidth utilization. The module allows media to cascade to the Zoom cloud to accommodate external guests and provide additional capacity as required. The Zoom Meetings Hybrid module also provides security demarcation for network edge proxy capability allowing organizations to reduce the number of network ingress and egress points.
