Cisco UCS - Outline

Next-generation data center platform that unites compute, network, storage access, and virtualization into a cohesive system
10 Gigabit Ethernet unified network fabric with enterprise-

class, x86-architecture servers.

Managed as a single system whether it has one server or

hundreds of servers with thousands of virtual machines

New Innovations with UCS

Embedded system management UCS Manager
Just-in-time provisioning with service profiles
Unified fabric - eliminating the need for multiple sets of adapters, cables,

and switches for LANs, SANs, and high-performance computing networks.

VN-Link virtualization support - extends the network to the virtual

machine.
Cisco Extended Memory Technology - as much as 512 GB Memory.
