Data Center

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) provides the means to automatically deploy both the Cisco ACI network infrastructure configuration and the BIG-IP L4-L7 services for applications. Here, we provide our customers a joint solution and a series of tools that can be used to start their IaC journey.

The Cisco UCS X-Series begins with the Cisco UCS X9508 Chassis. Our engineering teams rethought everything: modularity, size, power, cooling, and fabrics. The result is a great infrastructure choice to base your hybrid cloud computing platform for the next decade.

Discover how the new Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller addresses an array of data center automation challenges while being very easy to deploy and operate.

Today’s Storage Area Networks (SAN) need to evolve to 64G Fibre Channel to support the increasing application workloads and performance requirements. Learn more about Cisco’s 64G module that provides a range of innovations to help SAN customers adopt and evolve their SAN today.

As complexities and expectations escalate, hybrid network management often remains inefficient and subpar, despite all the tools and money and people on the tasks. The answer to all this complexity? A single command center: Cisco Nexus Dashboard.

Current sustainability efforts require power-efficient solutions that can deliver more bandwidth at a reduced wattage. Cisco recently introduced 48 ports on the Cisco MDS 9700 64-Gbps Fibre Channel Switching Module, a real technological breakthrough. Increased bandwidth, combined with approximately 40% decrease in power consumption makes it about 7 times more power efficient than its predecessor.

Cisco announced the UCS X-Series in June. But I know how hard it is to keep up with industry news, so I thought a blog series was a good way to familiarize / refamiliarize you with our next gen modular system.

With applications transitioning into the cloud, businesses need to automate infrastructure and application deployment in order to stay ahead of the game. F5 and Cisco make programmability and automation inherent parts of operational IT processes, and Ansible provides BIG-IP and ACI users a simple, yet powerful, multi-tier automation and orchestration platform.

Work/life balance has changed for many workers and their families, as have their workspace habits and preferences. IT organizations and workers have grown accustomed to being productive under mostly remote work circumstances. As companies begin their return to the office, it is critical to make infrastructure investments to support hybrid employees — and Cisco can help.
