  1. Cisco UCS C-Series Rack-Mount ServersThe Computing Platform for Virtualised Data Centres

    Business Overview <Name>, <Job Title>
  2. Virtualisation Computing Networkand Storage Access The Data Centre is at a Market Transition Transformation Technology advances Energy efficiency Economic efficiency Dynamic business environment Challenges Scalability Management integration Application migration Coherent policiesand security Cost
  3. Virtualisation has been promised as the answer. However, virtualisation solutions to date may only address part of the problem, but have done so by increasing operational expenses, infrastructure complexity and risk. Virtualisation Platform High Complexity High Touch Computing Platform NetworkPlatform Site Cost HVAC Power Dwelling Platform Cost Storage Network Software Server Organisation Cost Complexity VM Administrator Co-ordination Costs Costs Costs Data Centre Virtualisation Today
  4. Unleashing the Data Centre’s Full Potential Benefits Reduced TCO Increased business agility Improved energy efficiency Solution Cohesive system that unites computing, network, storage access and virtualisation Management simplification Virtualisation Networkand Storage Access Computing
  5. Virtualisation has created a market transition. “Servers” are becoming fluid objects in the network. The data centre must evolve to continue to scale. Cisco is offering a fresh alternative to traditional ad-hoc add-on approaches for virtualised data centres. Data Centre 3.0 Evolution Path Unified computing LocationFreedom HWFreedom ProvisioningFreedom Consolidation: Virtualisation Automation Utility Market Inter-Cloud Private Clouds Unified computing Unified Fabric Data Centre Networking
  6. Computing Hardware Device Management Unified Computing Role in Data Centre 3.0 Process Automation Virtualisation Fully integrated system that brings together the network fabric, computing resources and virtualisation software to simplify setup, improve business metrics, and enable just-in-time provisioning for business transactions .

  7. The Data Centre 3.0 evolution path has led to a series of rapid innovations designed to Unify Data and Process, Simplify Data Centre Complexity and Amplify Business Outcomes. Rapid Data Centre Innovation Nexus 5000 10GbE DCB & FCoE Nexus 2000 Fabric Extender Nexus 1000V VM-Aware Networking Nexus 7000 Lossless Fabric Cisco UCS Integrated Computing Platform 8GB FC Cisco MDS VM-Aware Storage NX-OS 4.1 4.2 June June 2009 2008
  8. Unified Fabric Fabric Extender Virtualised Adapter The Cisco Unified Computing System is designed to dramatically reduce data centre total cost of ownership, while simultaneously increasing IT agility and responsiveness. Cisco Unified Computing System Automated Provisioning Embedded single point of management and provisioning Visibility and control across data centre organisations Infrastructure policy management and compliance VirtualisationOptimisation Fine-grained control, portability and visibility of network, computing, and storage attributes More than double the memory capacity of competing systems Industry Standard Servers Intel Xeon processor 5500 series 150% generational performance increase Intelligent platform for performance and energy efficiency Unified Fabric Wire-once, low latency FC and Ethernet Virtualisation aware Less than half the normal number of adapters, switches, cables Scale Out Extended Memory
  9. The Cisco Unified Computing System is designed to dramatically reduce data centre total cost of ownership, while simultaneously increasing IT agility and responsiveness. Cisco Unified Computing System Today Lower total cost of ownership CAPEX: Up to 20% reduction OPEX: Up to 30% reduction Cooling and power efficient Increases business agility Provision applications in minutes instead of days Automation reduces service outages Just-in-time resource provisioning Investment protection: Industry standards-based Co-exist with existing data centre infrastructure Leverage existing management applications via API

  11. Since its initial launch in the spring of 2009, Cisco UCS has been validated with industry awards, market momentum and initial customer deployments delivering lower total cost and increased agility. Cisco UCS Increasing Momentum Customer Traction “Nothing else came close in terms of management simplicity, energy efficiency, application availability and cost reduction, all of which have made it possible for us to hit our initial ROI targets and deploy an architecture that can scale with us over the coming years”. – Tutor Perini Market Traction Goldman Sachs survey of 100 Fortune 1,000 IT executives Nearly two-thirds of respondents expect an increased presence of Cisco servers in their data centres in the next two to three years. 18% are planning to evaluate Cisco’s UCS in the next 12 months Industry Acclaim
  12. By combining UCS C-Series and UCS B-Series, (blade form factor), Cisco’s Unified Computing System now addresses the vast majority of customers’ data centre computing requirements. Introducing C-Series Rack-Mount Servers Helps reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) and increase business agility. ExtendsUnified Computing innovationsand benefits to rack-mount servers The first rack-mount servers offering a built-in migration path to unified computing Increased customer choice with unique benefits in a familiar rack-mount package UCS C250 M2 Extended Memory Rack-Mount Server UCS C210 M2 General-Purpose Rack-Mount Server UCS C200 M2 High-Density Rack-Mount Server
  13. Cisco C-Series servers provide a flexible, comprehensive, standards-based set of management options that enable heterogeneous data centres to take advantage of the servers' innovative features today. Options to Deploy Innovation Integrated Existing mgmt tools plus UCS Manager API Integrated mgmt tools Enabled in CY2010 Existing mgmt tools Heterogeneous IPMI, CLI, Web GUI, KVM Tivoli Openview Available at Launch
  14. Industry-Standard innovations that help UCS B-Series Blade servers reduce TCO also apply to UCS C-Series Rack-Mount Servers, with the additional benefits of a familiar rack form factor and built in migration path to Unified Computing. Embedded – Unified Management Extended Memory Technology Dynamic Provisioning – Service Profiles UCS Innovations Decrease TCO Unified Fabric VN Link – Virtual Interface Card B-Series Blade Servers Additional CAPEX and OPEX Savings from High Density Blade Form Factor C-Series Rack-Mount Servers Additional CAPEX and OPEX Savings from versatility and investment protection
