Cisco UCS Director
Cisco UCS Director is a Cisco UCS (Unified Computing System) management software environment used for consolidation within an advanced administration dashboard, as well as monitoring the 4 critical elements of the data center:
- servers;
- virtualization environments;
- information storage systems;
- network infrastructure.
Description
. Cisco UCS Director is used to improve IT interoperability within a network and optimize workload performance. With the help of this software solution it is possible to raise the efficiency of data center operations several times by replacing manual processes with automation and increase the speed of processing dynamic processes.
As a result, the complexity of the data center topology will be reduced and the level of availability will be increased. As a result, it will reduce the workload on the enterprise’s workforce and significantly increase profitability and productivity levels.
Opportunities
. With the help of Cisco UCS Director software, you can optimize your enterprise operations to a great extent due to the following factors:
- Cisco UCS Director allows you to configure and allocate hardware resources for both virtual and physical networks;
- PoS allows you to establish the implementation of targeted data center architecture with the definition of individual security policies, as well as to implement the isolation of necessary resources (multi-tenancy);
- provides the ability to monitor with predictions and recovery in case of failure, which increases the availability of the data center;
- support for the implementation of hyperconverged and converged infrastructures from scratch;
- the software solution helps to quickly install, configure and deploy entire Splunk and Hadoop platforms literally “in one click” until they are ready for use by product services or developers.
. In addition to all of the above, Cisco UCS Director provides advanced monitoring, in-depth diagnostics, analytics, and reporting support to clearly track infrastructure health.
Positives
. The UCS Director software product has several important positive aspects:
- With UCS Director, the data center scales easily by automating the processes of implementing new infrastructure complexes. At the same time, support for all new clients, platforms, and locations will be realized.
- The responsiveness of the infrastructure to new business requirements within the competitive landscape will be enhanced.
- Cisco UCS Director will organize and automate the management of Cisco and third-party devices, which will have a positive impact on the efficiency of administration without increasing the number of competent employees or increasing the burden on current workforce.
- When needed, resources will be provisioned in minutes, and the speed of typical operations will be increased by automating them. As a result, data center performance will be brought to a whole new level.
- At the end of the day, data center performance will be brought to a whole new level.
