Featured Solution: Cisco Data Center Design & Implementation
A data center is where the majority of an enterprise servers and storage are located, operated and managed.
Power continues to lead as a concern for data center operations. Data centers are designed to a specific power density - watts per square foot - with a typical cabinet of equipment occupying 14 sq. ft. of space.
Removing a single x86 server from a data center will result in savings of more than $400 a year in energy costs alone.
Beyond backup and recovery protection, ensuring maximum data center availability and uptime is clearly crucial to a business’s success. Business Continuity seldom goes beyond the planning stage at most companies, however, until downtime or data loss hit.
The usual goal of virtualization is to centralize administrative tasks while improving scalability and work loads.
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 Unified Computing System streamlines data center resources to reduce total cost of ownership, scales service delivery to increase business agility, and radically reduces the number of devices requiring setup, management, power, cooling, and cabling.
There is growing pressure from environmentalists and, increasingly, the general public for governments to offer green incentives: monetary support for the creation and maintenance of ecologically responsible technologies.
The disk drive array may include 12 drives. Each of the first, second and third groups of disk drives may include 4 disk drives. The selected data may be stored on a first disk driveincluded in the first group of disk drives, a second disk drive included in the second group of disk drives and a third and fourth disk drive included in the third group of disk drives. The selected data may include boot code for each of the first andsecond storage processors. The boot code for the first storage processor may be stored on the first disk drive and the third disk drive and the boot code for the second storage processor is stored on the second disk drive and the fourth disk drive.
Nexus sets the stage for converged Fibre Channel and Ethernet networks. The Nexus products will allow companies to consolidate their separate server and storage networking infrastructures onto one unified network fabric.
