Supporting Student Notes:

Cisco UCS Invicta Scaling System offers investment protection and scaling based on IT needs:
• Scale up and scale out—scale both performance and capacity
• Have data reduction and application acceleration side by side in the same architecture
Accelerate data-intensive workloads, including analytics and intelligence, batch processing, database loads, email, high-
performance computing, online transaction processing, video transcoding, and virtual desktops.
• Scalable pools of flash memory eliminate operational bottlenecks in the data center.
• React to dynamic business trends with integrated transactional data and real-time analytics.
Sustain competitive advantage with faster application run times, business process times, time-to-service delivery, time-to-
market, and time-to-access new and existing revenue streams.
A lower total cost of ownership (TCO) results from savings in several areas:
• Unified management reduces administrative workload and automates IT processes
• Solid-state flash memory technology reduces power consumption and floor space
• Data reduction reduces IT infrastructure and data center footprint requirements
• Thin provisioning eliminates the cost of unused, over-allocated resources
