This document discusses how Cisco Intelligent Automation can complement and extend VMware vCloud Director. It notes that vCloud Director provides standardization, increased agility and application portability through compute models. Cisco Intelligent Automation adds value-added services, simplified configuration and intelligent automation. It can orchestrate all datacenter resources required to support vCloud, provide a unified portal for virtual, cloud, physical and professional services, and deliver additional services like monitoring, backup and disaster recovery for vApps.
