Cisco UCS
Introduction
The Cisco Unified Computing System is an architecture designed for the data center. Its a data center server platform that integrates networking, storage resources and computing to enhance efficiency and enable centralized management. It consists of virtualization support, computing hardware, management software and switching fabric. Its main focus is to reduce the total cost of ownership and enhance scalability by integrating the various elements into a cohesive platform that can be managed as a single unit.
