integrating, helping it adapt quickly to
changes in hardware configuration.
You can move a node from the loading
dock and add it to your cluster simply
by plugging in network and power
cables—no manual node configuration
is required. Cisco Unified Computing
System™ (Cisco UCS®) service
profiles prepare every aspect of a
node’s identity, configuration, and
connectivity, increasing efficiency and
security and reducing deployment time.
You no longer need to configure and
manage logical unit numbers (LUNs)
and volumes, and the system delivers
consistent performance that reduces
daily management challenges.

Efficiency and Flexible Scaling
Cisco HyperFlex Systems provide
a cluster configuration that scales
resources independently to closely
match the resource needs of your VDI
environments (Figure 1). You can start
small and support tens or hundreds of
users and easily and cost-effectively
scale to support thousands. After a
system is deployed, you simply add

users and easily and cost-effectively
scale to support thousands. After a
system is deployed, you simply add
nodes to the cluster, and data is
automatically rebalanced across all
shared resources. You can easily tailor
the configuration to support persistent
and nonpersistent desktops and deliver
full desktop infrastructure or application
streaming depending on the needs of
your workforce.

Adaptable, Optimized Infrastructure
With Cisco HyperFlex Systems, you
can reduce your data footprint and
optimize your infrastructure cost. Unlike
VDI solutions that use traditional SAN
or network-attached storage (NAS)
infrastructure, Cisco HyperFlex Systems
take a different approach, combining
solid-state disk (SSD) drives and
spinning disks (hard-disk drives [HDDs])
into a single distributed, multitier,
object-based data store. An innovative
caching tier stores frequently and
recently used information to accelerate
performance. In addition, native inline
deduplication and compression are
always on to help ensure that your
can reduce your data footprint and
optimize your infrastructure cost. Unlike
