Demand for data center innovation has vaulted Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) to the #3 leader in the fast-growing segment of the x86 server market
UCS impacting growth of established vendors like HPLegacy offerings flat-lining or in declineCisco growth out-pacing the market
Customers have shifted 14% of the global x86 blade server market to Cisco and over 21% in North America
UCS #3 and climbing

Cisco Unified Computing SystemSimplifies Cloud Infrastructure
A single system that unifies Compute: Industry standard x86 Network: Unified fabric Connectivity: Wire once for SAN, NAS, iSCSI Virtualization: Control, scale, performance
Embedded management Increase scalability without added complexity Dynamic resource provisioning
Highly efficient Fewer servers, switches, adapters, cables Lower power and cooling requirements Increase compute efficiency by removing I/O and
memory bottlenecks

UCS & CloudPlatform Reference ArchitectureTried & True Cloud Architecture
Save time Reduce the amount of time to roll out
cloud by using a predesigned architecture
Do it right Leverage the knowledge of subject
matter experts for design & configuration best practices
Know your capabilities Example scaling data helps you
understand the capabilities of your cloud before you even deploy
