“Ordinarily, expanding rom twoto three data centers would beexpected to increase operationalcosts by 50 percent. Our operationalcosts will actually decrease by 40percent when we expand rom twoto three data centers. A major reasonis the space, power, and coolingsavings rom consolidating rom 84 to30 racks.”

Faster Deployment Times
Cisco UCS is intelligent inrastructure
that is sel-aware and sel-integrating.
When new components are added
to the system, they are automatically
placed in resource pools, making
deployment ast and easy. The
system is built rom the oundation so
that every aspect o server identity,personality, and connectivity is
abstracted and can be applied through
sotware. Servers are conigured
automatically, eliminating the manual,
time-consuming, error-prone assembly
o components into systems. Every
aspect o the inrastructure can be
conigured dynamically, making each
server ready to power any workload at
any time.
Achieve 1-to-100 (or Greater) Sta-
to-Server Ratio
Cisco UCS eliminates the manual,
time-consuming, error-prone
assembly o components into systems
because every aspect o the Cisco
UCS inrastructure can be conigured
automatically and dynamically,
making each server ready to power
any workload at any time. Gone are
the days o sticky notes rom one
administrator to another, communicating
important coniguration inormation or
individual system coniguration. Cisco
UCS Manager enables, encourages,
and supports immediate, real-time,
and eicient cooperation between
administrative roles, with cross-role
visibility. This visibility provides a path to
the preprovisioning o critical elementsin the deployment process. The
inherent cooperative nature o Cisco
UCS Manager removes the traditional
data center management silo barriers,
which historically have reduced sta
eiciency.
Outstanding Perormance
“Our most important driver wasperormance. Perormance testingdelivered improvements that wereup to 20 times aster with the IntelXeon platorm than we had beenable to achieve on our existingRISC-based systems. We went romalmost 100 percent CPU utilizationto barely achieving 20 percent. TheCisco Uniied Computing System andarchitecture gives us a lot o room togrow.”

the challenges associated with
the migration o mission-critical
applications. Cisco RISC/UNIX Migration
Services provides a proven process
to help customers move rom RISC-
based UNIX environments to Cisco
UCS. Using best-in-class migration
methodologies, in-depth analysis
tools, a robust planning process, and
design and implementation services,
Cisco provides a comprehensive,
cost-eective approach to customer
migration initiatives.
With Cisco UCS and Cisco RISC/
UNIX Migration Services, you can
transorm your IT inrastructure into
a lexible, agile, cost-eective data
center that is a strategic asset to the
business. Imagine the possibilities—an
environment in which computing,
networking, and storage accessresources are part o an elastic,
scalable, lexible inrastructure that can
be put into action at any moment. Cisco
provides market-leading, innovative,
standards-based solutions that
combine to deliver the data center o
the uture. Working in tandem with the
business, this new, open inrastructure
oers enhanced perormance,
scalability, reliability, and manageability
at less cost than your existing outdated
RICS/UNIX inrastructure.

Cisco Support: Depth o Experience
“We received great support romCisco Services in helping us testand deploy the implementationon schedule. They also helped ustake advantage o eatures that weotherwise would not have known howto optimize or our needs. We werepleasantly surprised with Cisco’sexpertise and depth o experiencewith Cisco Uniied Computing, Oracle,and data center technologies.”
