Featured Solution: Cisco Data Center Design & Implementation


Q. Do all companies manage their own equipment in a data center?
A. No. The management of IT and data center facilities are often outsourced to third party companies that specialize in the monitoring, maintenance and remediation of systems and facilities on a shared services basis.

Data centers are the biggest challenges facing IT executives in the coming years.

Data center managers should implement improvements to your facilities. for example, raise the temperature of the data center and use energy management software.

Operating system virtualization is the use of software to allow a piece of hardware to run multiple operating system images at the same time.

Virtualization can be viewed as part of an overall trend in enterprise IT that includes autonomic computing, a scenario in which the IT environment will be able to manage itself based on perceived activity, and utility computing, in which computer processing power is seen as a utility that clients can pay for only as needed.

Companies often run just one application per server because they don’t want to risk the possibility that one application will crash and bring down another on the same machine. Estimates indicate that most x86 servers are running at an average of only 10 to 15 percent of total capacity. With virtualization, you can turn a single purpose server into a multi-tasking one, and turn multiple servers into a computing pool that can adapt more flexibly to changing workloads.

One of the primary reasons organisations do not perform frequent backups is that traditional storage management software runs over the network and can negatively impact network performance. As a result, many companies can only perform backups during off hours. However, this approach is also flawed because it exposes data to loss. A storage management solution that minimises network loading enables companies to perform backups as needed during the day.

The Cisco UCS integrates low-latency unified network fabric with enterprise-class, x86-based servers, creating an integrated, scalable, multichassis platform in which all resources participate in a unified management domain. A single system scales to up to 40 chassis, 320 compute nodes, and thousands of virtual machines.

Green IT can be defined as research in and use of IT in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner.

Both small businesses and global enterprises have users all over the world who require access to data 24 hours a day. Without this data access, revenue and customers can be lost, penalties can be owed, and bad press can have a lasting effect on customers and a company's reputation. Building a high availability IT infrastructure is critical to the success and well being of all enterprises in today's fast moving economy.

The Cisco Nexus 1000V allows policy to move with a virtual machine during live migration ensuring persistent network, security, and storage compliance resulting in improved business continuance, performance management, and security compliance.
