Data Center: Cloud & Convergencia
This document discusses cloud computing and the Cisco Nexus 5500 series switches. It defines cloud computing and lists its key characteristics as on-demand access, access over the internet/network, pooling of resources independent of location, elasticity, and measurable service. It also discusses different cloud service models (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) and deployment models (public, private, hybrid, virtual private). The document then focuses on the Cisco Nexus 5500 series switches, outlining their scalability, performance, versatility, and flexibility features like unified ports. It introduces new expansion modules and routing capabilities for the Nexus 5500 platform.

Editor's Notes
- #11 Now let’s take a quick look at the Nexus 5548 – which is the first model in this line…it provides up to 48 ports in 1 RU form factor...with combination of fixed ports & 3 expansion modules for modularity – unified ports are available as on option with one of the expansion module..There will be another model with 96 ports in 2 RU form factor – the Nexus 5596, which will provide 32 fixed ports & four expansion slots for a total of 96 ports..all ports will be unified ports capable…The combination of Nexus 2000 & Nexus 5000 provides 100M->1G->10GbE to Unified Fabric – along with a highly scalable soln – (over 900 1GbE & over 600 10 GbE ports)…all with single management point..thus providing any server connectivity, any speed, any transport in the data center…which is in line with our vision to provide flexibility and choice for our customers..All of these innovative functionalities at -- 50 % less cost for a 10G bE competitive solution -- 50 % less management points-- 40 % less power------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Multi Purpose :The combination of Nexus 5500 with FEX will provides 1GbE scalability of over 900 ports, making it an ideal choice for the traditional, general purpose POD provides 10GbE scalability of up to 600 ports with single pt of mgmt, making it an ideal choice for the virtualized POD provides predictable latency and low jitter at large scale delivering the ability to handle microbursts for HPC environmentsThe Cisco Nexus 5500 platform allows customers to deploy larger, loop-free Layer 2 topologies with technologies such as FabricPath and standards-based IETF TRILL, thus increasing the overall uptime for the businessFinally, the Nexus 5500 offers investment protection with backward and forward compatibility built in:Customers can easily upgrade their existing Nexus 5000 Series switches to the Nexus 5500 platform, with no changes to their existing Nexus 2000 infrastructure, providing strong investment protection to the FEX-Link architectureThe Nexus 5500 platform allows customers to future proof their network for 10GBase-T and 40GbE standards-based technologies
- #14 Cisco Unified port technology enables ports to be dynamically allocated to support Fibre Channel, iSCSI or FCoE data or loss less Ethernet thus offering unparalleled flexibility and choiceUnified ports allows the customers not to worry about predetermining the amount of physical, rigid ports they require for convergence prior to making a network switch purchase— removes all guess work around the selection of port types and ratios thus simplifying the purchasing decisions.This technology provides variable connectivity options and complete flexibility and choice enabling customer-paced network convergence and design flexibility. With Unified ports customer can shift protocol support allowing them to provide service based on the demand and bandwidth requirements.
- #31 There needs to be speaker notes for the UPC and VIFs
- #42 (describe factors limiting scalability, tie off previous fabric interconnect discussions, racking/environmental considerations)
