Cisco UCS reduces total cost of 
ownership (TCO) at the platform, 
site, and organizational levels while 
increasing IT staff productivity. With 
extensive scalability, a large partner 
ecosystem, and Cisco UCS Director 
for centralized automation of your 
physical and virtual resources, you can 
take advantage of an open ecosystem 
approach and extend your data center 
to increase business agility.
Elasticsearch
Elasticsearch is a powerful, 
open-source, distributed, real-time 
search and analytics engine built on 
top of Apache Lucene. Designed for 
use in distributed environments that 
require reliable and scalable search 
capabilities, Elasticsearch supports 
real-time analytics and full-text search 
over stored data. With a robust set of 
APIs, query data sublanguages (DSLs), 
and clients for popular programming 
languages, Elasticsearch is gaining wide 
adoption as an open platform for the 
log data used by organizations.
This distributed, real-time document 
store and search engine indexes every 
field and makes it available in real time 
for analysis. The solution can scale to 
hundreds of servers and petabytes of 
structured and unstructured data. Using 
the built-in 
, your users can natively interact 
with their data through prebuilt and 
custom dashboards. As a result, you 
can gain a deep understanding of data 
convergence from multiple sources 
within your enterprise.
 aggregates 
data from any system—including log 
data, time-series data, comma-
separated value (CSV) data, and more 
than 40 data sources—into a single 
repository for additional transformation 
and processing. Using Elasticsearch 
as its back-end data store, Logstash 
creates a powerful pipeline for storing, 
querying, and analyzing log files.
 protects data and helps ensure 
that it complies with your security 
policies. This enterprise-class security 
solution for Elasticsearch deployments 
includes role-based access control 
(RBAC); support for authentication and 
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol 
(LDAP) servers; and encryption, audit 
logging, and IP filtering capabilities.
Your IT staff is notified of changes in 
your Elasticsearch data volumes by 
, software that lets you create 
custom alerts and automate actions 
based on observed changes in data. 
All indexed data in the Elasticsearch 
system can be watched, including 
application, network, social, transaction, 
and monitoring data.
Extend to a Hybrid Cloud
Cisco Intercloud Fabric simplifies the 
process of securely extending your data 
center networks from your private cloud 
to a public or provider-hosted cloud 
(Figure 2). It enables your enterprise IP 
address space to be used, facilitating 
workload mobility and connectivity 
to your enterprise services, including 
name services and authentication 
services, as well as compliance and 
security processes and policies.
Rapid Provisioning and Data Access
The solution lets you place and 
instantiate your enterprise computing 
templates in the public cloud. Your IT 
staff can quickly create and configure 
Elasticsearch nodes while maintaining 
enterprise network connectivity. Using 
a secure cloud extension, you can
