The data center is changing. Unified storage, virtualized compute layers, thousands of desktops running on servers, multi-layer applications, Web 2.0, the list goes on and on. The data center of today is not the data center of yesterday, and it isn't the data center of tomorrow.
Deployment of converged networks and ever denser racks of equipment requires detailed planning from experienced, educated technical architects who understand the ramifications of new network architectures and how they will evolve over time so you don't design yourself into a corner.
Parity Data Systems has partnered with Cisco Systems to bring the right combination of next-generation networking technologies to the unified storage and virtualized compute environments of our customers. Cisco is the undisputed leader in networking, and is at the forefront of the converged network shift.
At the heart of this new, unified network lies the Cisco Nexus series switches. The Nexus product line represents a new paradigm in networking the data center. The unified network means that there are no more islands of management or connectivity. The design of a physical network can be drastically simplified, decreasing touch points for network administrators, and creating architectures that are far more powerful.
Learn how this next generation network architecture will help change the way you deploy and utilize resources.
