Cisco Unified Computing System and Virtualization Seminar

Seminar Overview:

The Unified Computing System (UCS) from Cisco was announced over one year ago.  During the first year after its entry to the market, Cisco UCS has seen a rapidly growing install base.  The core of the UCS solution is centered around high-speed 10Gbps data center switching that is connected via a low-latency unified fabric (FCoE).  With extended memory configurations up to 384GB per blade, high-densities of virtualized servers are possible with the Cisco UCS solution.

As a VMware partner, Sovran has been deploying virtualized data center solutions for many years.  Along with our existing expertise with virtualization and business continuity planning, the UCS solutions from Cisco are a natural fit.

In this seminar we will cover:
 - The Unified Computing System (UCS) Architecture
 - UCS benefits for virtualization and business continuity
  o Service profiles / service profile templates
  o Resource pools and the unified fabric
  o Virtualization density with extended memory configurations
  o 1000v virtual switches
  o UCS Manager centralized management

The intended audience is:
 - Anyone looking at virtualization and server consolidation technologies
 - Existing data center managers looking to compare their infrastructure to
   Cisco’s offering
 - Existing Cisco customers looking at extending their existing infrastructure into
   the data center
