INTRODUCTION:

Does your Data Centre look anything like it did 10 years ago, or even 5? Chances are probably not! Growing pressure from outside of the IT department and changes in the very nature of how we work on a day to day basis, have led to a sea of change. IT, particularly infrastructure, has had to adapt and change to meet these demands. 

DTE and Cisco can help you optimise your data centre with UCS (Unified Computing Systems). UCS from Cisco has been designed to improve agility, flexibility, security and help you reduce costs and management time. 

But, How does this infrastructure technology actually deliver those benefits to your business? Lets take a look at 5 key reasons you should be considering adopting a unified computing system.

In some organisations, it is standard practice to obtain quotes from multiple suppliers for each IT purchase. But why is that?

Data centers provide the very foundation for our increasingly digitized world. The Data Center is a core piece to the successful enterprise. however the DC like any other technology has a number of myths and misunderstandings regarding their role, ability and how they work. Our experts were discussing some of these myths Monday morning, just within my earshot! So as a nice giving kind of guy I thought I would bust some of these myths for you.  

If you have been hiding under a rock over then you might not have heard about the "Internet of Things". This presentation from Cisco's Mike Flannagan will showcase how you can benefit from the powerful Data and Analytics of IoT!

Changes, they happen every day. In the world of the enterprise network we are witnessing some massive changes on the way that we work. Not that long ago we were marveling at our desktop workers and the speed and security that we could offer, now we are all talking about VDI, Mobilization and the cloud. All of these changes are bringing a new issue to the forefront of our network.
