Denna presentation hölls på IBM Business Connect (http://www.ibm.com/se/businessconnect) i oktober 2015 av Greger Jerlehagen (CTO, Cisco) Beskrivning: Ett datacenter är en komplex miljö med många olika komponenter som måste samexistera. Ju mer man kan integrera de olika delarna desto färre manageringspunkter och möjliga felkällor får man i sitt datacenter. Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) revolutionerade datacentren när det introducerades för ca 6 år sedan. Nu har man byggt vidare på detta tillsammans med IBM. VersaStack bygger på denna plattform genom integrationen med IBMs Storwize.

Converged Infrastructures Market Dynamics
“By year-end 2015, 35% of total
server shipped value will be as
integrated systems.”
“By 2015, converged
infrastructure will represent 9.5%
of the $64B services, software,
and hardware markets.”
“By 2017, nearly
two-thirds of all enterprise
application infrastructures will
be packaged in the form of a
converged solution.”
According to IDC, converged solutions are growing 30% per year
To reach $14B in 2017 (of which $6.8B Storage; $6.7B Servers)
