One of those new technologies in the Enterprise Data Center space is what I call Infrastructure Orchestration (others term it fabric computing or unified computing ). Infrastructure Orchestration abstracts and defines/configures the infrastructure world (I/O, NIC cards, HBA cards, storage connectivity, LANs, switches, etc.).

Indeed, there are a number of similar technologies out there (Cisco with its UCS, and HP with its own offerings). The beauty of infrastructure orchestration is that it abstracts-away all of the "plumbing" of the Server such as I/O, networking and storage connectivity -- which makes it an absolutely *ideal* complement to virtualization.

Dealing with this data volume, variety, velocity and complexity is really a “big data” problem for IT operations, forcing many traditional approaches in IT to change, ushering in IT Operations Analytics solutions to take on this challenge. IT Operations Analytics is better equipped to manage this kind of big data challenge.

It allows IT operations to define I/O, storage connectivity and networking entirely in software, resulting in stateless and re-configurable CPUs. It permits IT to "wire-once" and then create CPU configurations (virtual NICs, HBAs, networks/VLANs, storage connections) using a unified/consolidated networking fabric. Big Data. (6).

Right-on… Then there is a report by Gartner Research on fabric-based computing… which estimated that by the end of 2012, roughly 30% of the world’s top 2000 companies would have some form of fabric-based computing architecture. As physical/virtual servers move, migrate and scale, storage simply follows. Big Data. (6).

Fundamentally, the concept abstracts-away a servers I/O, disk, storage connectivity, and out-of-band controls, making it a stateless entity. and the Host Bus Adaptor (HBA) for connection to storage. Changes to the network or storage meant changing I/O configurations. Issues having to do with I/O, storage connectivity, etc.

The Cisco Unified Computing System is a next-generation data center platform that unites compute, network, storage access, and virtualization into a cohesive system.". A technology where CPU allocation , data I/O , storage I/O , network configurations, and s torage connections are all logically defined and configured in software.

and storage connectivity (LUN mapping, switch control) are all abstracted and defined/configured in software. The result is a pooling of physical servers, network resources and storage resources that can be assigned on-demand. BTW, there is another nice resource -- a white paper commissioned by HP (!)
