If you are planning to run Cisco Unified Communications Applications as virtual machines then this session is for you. It will discuss how to enable new or existing UC Solution to run on Cisco UCS B and C Series servers in a VMWare based virtualized environment. It will provide a systems level overview, requirements and design caveats of virtual UC on UCS architecture; discussion on adjacent technologies like VMware, SAN, QoS, Nexus 1000v, differences between physical and virtual UC deployment etc. Attendees should have a working knowledge of Cisco UC product portfolio specially CUCM. Also introductory level knowledge on VMware, UCS and SAN concepts is required. This session is aimed for UC as well as Data Center Solution Architects, Consulting/Systems/Design Engineers and Administrators. This session will not cover configuration and troubleshooting details of virtual UC on UCS solution but will touch upon them briefly where necessary.
The Cisco Unified Computing System™ is a next-generation data center platform that unites compute, network, storage access, and virtualization into a cohesive system designed to reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) and increase business agility. The
system integrates a low-latency, lossless 10 Gigabit Ethernet unified network fabric with enterprise-class, x86-architecture servers. The system is an integrated, scalable, multichassis platform in which all resources participate in a unified management domain.
This presentation will offer an Overview of the UCS System Architecture, including all of the technical innovations that serve as the foundation. Among the topics covered will be overviews on Unified Fabric, Service Profiles, Hardware Abstraction, Fabric Extension, Memory Expansion and the UCS Manager. Further insight will be offered into the XML -based API and the basic set of managed objects, including Pools, Policies and Templates.

VMWare Lab For Training and Testing: As our IT infrastructure grows in complexity and new products are released every so often, we are faced with the same expectations to deliver tested and innovative IT environment while reducing the cost and speeding up the whole process of testing and training. Now, this is a real challenge if you don’t have all of the resources!
So, how can you reduce the cost, the time to plan, install, configure, validate and support complex virtual labs for training, practice or proof of concept? It’s time for a breakthrough, innovative solution…called: Cloud-Based VMWare Lab http://viadmin.com/pages/VMWare-Practice-Lab-at-Home.html!
Everything you wanted to know about iSCSI, but were afraid to ask. Presneted by David Black PhD who was a fundamental influence on the development of the protocol. This presentation is really fantastic!
Converged Data Center: FCoE, iSCSI and the Future of Storage NetworkingEMC
(EMC World 2012 )This session explores the opportunities and challenges of using a single network to support both storage and networking. The Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI (SCSI over TCP/IP) protocols offer two approaches for supporting storage over Ethernet. Standards, technologies and deployment scenarios for both protocols are covered, along with the future of storage networking technology.
FC SAN vs iSCSI SAN: Which One is Right for Your Business?
