Watch the replay: http://cs.co/9000DCie4 In today’s digital economy, getting ahead means crunching a lot of data. That’s why businesses of all sizes and industries are investing in high-performance computing. However, the last thing IT needs is another tech silo to manage. Fortunately, the new Cisco UCS C4200 Series chassis and C125 M5 server node help you scale out compute-intensive workloads with ease—with the network fabric you already have. This TechWiseTV Workshop will get you up to speed fast. Resources: Watch the related TechWiseTV episode: http://cs.co/9006DAVPC TechWiseTV: http://cs.co/9009DzrjN
