Cisco UCS Servers Change the Economics of the Data Center
IT infrastructure matters now more than ever, as organizations seek to achieve the full potential of infrastructure
as a service (IaaS), bare metal, virtualized servers, and cloud computing. Cisco continues to lead in Data Center
innovation with the introduction of new building blocks for the Cisco Unified Computing System that extend its
exceptional simplicity, agility, and efficiency (Figure 2). Innovations such as the Cisco UCS B200 M3 Blade Server
bring even better industry-leading performance from IT infrastructure to enterprise applications.

Cisco UCS Components
Cisco innovations, such as the Cisco UCS Manager software, allow administrators to create a software model of a
desired server (using Cisco service profiles and templates) and then instantiate that server and its I/O connectivity
by associating a model with physical resources. This approach contrasts with the traditional approach of
configuring each system resource manually, one at a time, through individual element managers. Unlike legacy
vendors of traditional systems, Cisco uses a unified management model with service profiles that can be moved
easily between any Cisco UCS servers - whether blade server or rack server - in a Cisco UCS Manager domain.
In other words, Cisco UCS service profiles are form-factor agnostic.
