Prior to the iPhone you couldn’t convince my wife that a smartphone could completely replace her MP3 player, HP IPAQ and Mobile Phone. SDN proponents have called the traditional approach to networking “a big bag of protocols.” The industry has traditionally taken a hardware first approach to solving protocol related issues.

within the first hour he blurts out "then if a customer uses this stuff, they should be able get five-9s of availability from run-of-the-mill hardware, right?" And if/when the hardware craps-out, it is software that automatically swaps-in a new resource. Big Data. (6). Data Center efficiency. (1). Think about it.

First of all, what we’re talking about here are systems like Cisco UCS, Egenera PAN Manager, HP VirtualConnect, IBM Open Fabric Manager, and a few others. Thus, Converged Infrastructure has the potential to displace a big chunk of traditional clustering software… (nearly a $ billion, if you follow IDC’s estimates ).

Essentially the punchline is this: Weve taken the most commonly-purchased hardware configuration and management tools used by mission-critical IT Ops, and integrated them into a single product with a single GUI that you can install and use in ~ 1 day. If you dont believe Dell hardware is ready for the Data Center, then think again.

Hardware consolidation. When most IT professionals think "virtualization" they are mostly wanting to consolidate/reduce hardware. and its very different from Hardware consolidation.

Both of these technologies instantly resulted in additional hardware on the motherboard: The Network Interface Card (NIC) for connection to Ethernet, etc., These pieces of hardware were sometimes incorporated into the motherboard itself, or sometimes were additional plug-ins. and the Host Bus Adaptor (HBA) for connection to storage.

He starts with the data center, and briefly discusses Intel’s leadership in CPUs (from the low-end with Atom and Avoton to the high-end with Xeon E5), server rack-scale architecture, and software-defined networking. Of course, all of these devices are transmitting data, and this leads James to a discussion of big data.

Think of this as provisioning hardware using software. This approach has numerous positiv properties - not the least of which are that you can clone hardware configurations when you need to (a) scale, (b) migrate, (c) fail-over, and (d) recover from entire system failures [disasters]. Big Data. (6). Wow, very neat.
