3. Simplify your operations and elastically provision with UCS stateless computing
5 Minutes to re-provision a bare-metal install to a different server *
0 Hardware-dependent attributes (stateless) enables provisioning based on peak/base loads
0Minutes invested in configuration when changing from one server to another (tech refresh)
4. Protect your investment with future-proof technology that performs at Intel’s max capacity145
Watts per processor (E5v3) and rising demands better powering cooling 8 Months in average is what it takes to
Intel to release a new processor4 Years is the average

ACI: The reason
Private Cloud
– On-premise
– Openstack, Vendor-oriented
Public Cloud
– Off-premise
– Security, Multi-tenant, mobility (challenges)
Hybrid Cloud
– Use-case based (burst, shadow-IT, Dev on public vs Production on private)
– Most likely to be implemented in the next 3-5 years
– Best price-performance option

What to choose?
Summary
Key takeaways
• Abstract your Data Center from hardware identity at every level and provision policy consistency everywhere from compute, storage to network with Cisco Data Center technologies
• Provision and change your physical and virtualnetwork including L4-L7 services in minutes with ACI and its open ecosystem
• Move your VMs from any supervisor anywhere in your network with integrated VXLAN on ACI
• Integrate next-generation storage with Cisco Converged Solutions, Virtual Storage and UCS hyperconvergency-built technologies
• Evolve from IT Automation to IT Consumption with Cisco Cloud Solutions like Openstack Integration, CEPC and UCS Director
• Manage your infrastructure through a single pane of glass and maintain policy consistency even if it is in the Public Cloud with Cisco Intercloud Fabric
• Optimize your applications OPEX and performancewith UCS and its RISC migration/trade-in program through service-profiles
