Unified Computing
The Cisco Unified Computing System™ is a next-generation
data center platform that unites computing, networking,
storage access, and virtualization resources into a cohesive
system designed to reduce total cost of ownership (TCO)
and increase business agility. The system integrates a low-
latency, lossless 10 Gigabit Ethernet unified network fabric
with enterprise-class, x86-architecture servers. The system
is an integrated, scalable, multichassis platform in which all
resources participate in a unified management domain.

Radically Simplified Server Management
Traditional blade servers add to data center complexity,
with each chassis and chassis-resident switch acting
as an independent point of management. Scaling out IT
infrastructure using these systems is costly interms of the
number of I/O interfaces that each chassis must support,
the power and cooling they require, the administrative and
management overhead of individual blade servers, and the
business agility lost because of delayed deployment times.

system that significantly reduces the number of components
while offering a just-in-time provisioning model that allows
systems to be deployed or redeployed in minutes rather than
hours or days.

Advanced silicon-level reliability and security features
automatically manage hardware errors and protect against
malicious software attacks, maintaining data integrity and
increasing the availability of mission-critical services. These
Intel innovations in combination with the simplicity, agility, and
total-cost-of-ownership (TCO) benefits of the Cisco Unified

The Cisco UCS B230 M2 uses converged network adapters
(CNAs) for consolidated access to the unified fabric. This
design reduces the number of adapters, cables, and access-
layer switches needed for LAN and SAN connectivity.
This Cisco innovation can significantly reduce capital and
operating expenses, including administrative overhead,
power, and cooling costs. Network adapter choices
(Figure 3) include adapters optimized for virtualization,
compatibility, and efficient, high-performance Ethernet.
