O que leva o mercado a mudar e escolher as soluções UCS da Cisco?
UCS = Simplicidade + Escalabilidade
“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” - Leonardo da Vinci, génio do sec. XV - XVI
“Escalabilidade no UCS representa poder aumentar a capacidade de computação sem aumentar a complexidade na gestão” - Jorge Portugal, génio (não reconhecido) do sec. XX - XXI
“Escalabilidade é uma característica desejável (…) estar preparado para crescer” - Wikipédia

Gestão embebida
Remover desnecessário:
• Switches
• Adapters
• Management Modules
Rede Unificada
Power & Cooling • Menos infraestrutura
• 63% open design
• Componentes de baixo consumo
Optimizado para Virtualização
• VM/host ratio
• 20+% I/O improvement
Sistemas de Blades Tradicionais:
• Building block é o chassis (enclosure)
• Módulos de gestão (redundantes - $$)
• Switches Ethernet ($$)
• Switches Fibre Channel ($$)
Nada se aproveita quando se
introduz mais enclosures ($$$$) • Software de gestão “overlay”
• Licenças para “features”

POLÍTICAS: Como quero os meus servidores configurados? • Política de firmware (RAID, NIC, HBA, etc.)
• Política de BIOS
• Quantos interfaces de rede, em que VLAN’s, qual o QoS, optimização, etc;
• Quantos HBA, optimização, etc.
• Política de RAID;
• Política de Boot;
• … mais de 100 parâmetros
Zé … vai ao Data Center e configura estes 50
servidores de acordo com estas políticas.
Quando acabares podes tirar o resto do dia.
