Help for Cisco-powered Data Centers
Data centers are the key to leveraging IT resources to optimize the competitive value of a computer network. For small organizations, data centers have typically evolved in a piecemeal fashion, creating a state where processors and disks are deployed inefficiently, usable communications capacity is wasted, teamwork and information sharing is minimal, maintenance demands are excessive, scaling or repurposing is costly, security is poor, seemingly simple changes become major challenges, and complete recovery from disastrous breakdowns becomes almost undoable.
Cisco's most recent networking appliances and technologies support a new model of data center architecture that permits continual enhancements in server, storage, network infrastructure, and application technologies in a manageable and economical way. Progent's consultants can help you to select and implement Cisco's connectivity technology to create a robust foundation for your data center and to streamline your operations in critical areas such as:
- Server and disk efficiency
- End-to-end security policy enforcement
- Server proliferation
- Regulatory compliance
- Disaster recovery
The important advantages that can accrue as a result of engaging Progent's Cisco-certified consultants to streamline your data center include:
- Reduced ownership cost: allows IT management to substantially reduce capital expenses through consolidation and higher utilization of formerly separate equipment, lower maintenance costs through simplifying and automating management jobs, and cut HVAC and energy costs.
- More Business Agility: permits IT to react quickly to evolving business demands by allowing rapid provisioning of application and network services from common aggregations of integrated server, storage, and network technologies. This can streamline administrative processes and enable policy-based control.
- Enhanced Network Resilience: enables IT to respond to breakdowns or attacks by protecting infrastructure, applications, and information with advanced degrees of availability, pervasive security, and business continuance.
- Optimized Service Levels: allows IT to improve network service levels by implementing safe, accelerated access to data center-resident applications and information from any location and at any time throughout the organization.
