As of Q2FY13 Data Center revenue reached a $2B annualized run rate.

In Q2FY13, Data Center revenue grew 65% Y/Y

As of February 2013, there are over 20,000 unique UCS customers which represents 87% Y/Y growth

More than half of all Fortune 500 customers have invested in UCS

460 customers have booked over 1 Million in UCS solutions and over 1,000 have booked over $500,000

Over 3,000 Channel Partners are actively selling UCS worldwide and over 1560 UCS specialized partners in the channel world wide

No other joint solution moves network QoS and security settings with virtual machines, automatically and simultaneously

Automates virtual machine and virtual infrastructure deployment; Auto-deploy hypervisor and supporting infrastructure simultaneously

Integrated port profiles and port groups reduce chance of error and increase security, eliminating downtime

Programmable infrastructure: standards-based integration with VMware Dynamic Power Management


Example Use Cases

• Automate frequently performed

administrative tasks

• Automatically provision and

deprovision hypervisors based

on utilization

• Add UCS physical provisioning

capabilities for vCloud Director

tenants (pVDCs)



• Consistent and simplified virtual infrastructure deployment

• Pay as you grow

• Enhanced availability with fewer servers and licenses required for HA

• UCS Service Profiles + ESXi Auto-Deploy simplifies initial deployment and provides standardizations of deployments

Now Supported by vSphere 5.1 Hypervisor

Intel® Virtualization Technology for Connectivity

(Intel® VT-C)

Hypervisor Hardware Assist using Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq)

Based on processor and network load the hypervisor dynamically offloads routing and filtering of networks packets to hardware-based receive queues on the controller to reduce host overhead

Hypervisor Bypass using SR-IOV enabled VMware DirectPath I/O VM assignment

Bypassing the hypervisor and allowing direct hardware access by virtual machines, reduces CPU overhead, reduces latency, and increases network throughput

• Interface type: Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), Ethernet, or Dynamic Ethernet interface device

• Resource maps that are presented to the host: PCIe base address registers (BARs), and interrupt arrays

• Network presence and attributes: Maximum transmission unit (MTU) and VLAN membership

• QoS parameters: IEEE 802.1p class, ETS attributes, rate limiting, and shaping

• Note: The VIC is capable of Single-Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) at the hardware level, and Cisco will provide a smooth transition to a SR-IOV solution when operating systems and hypervisors support it
