The FlexPod Platform

Many IT enterprises and service providers are moving towards a shared virtualized infrastructure. The shared infrastructure can provide speed and flexibility in deployments, and reduced costs. FlexPod as a platform addresses these needs and also provides a single platform that can be easily managed and scaled to manage multiple application platforms.

FlexPod takes advantage of the virtualization technology at every level:

• NetApp MultiStore storage virtualization
• Infrastructure Virtualization
• Stateless computing with Cisco UCS

FlexPod is a defined set of hardware and software that creates a shared infrastructure that can be deployed using a “pod” like deployment methodology. Several deployment scenarios for FlexPod have been tested and proven using the Cisco Validated Design process. FlexPod for VMware is a future-ready infrastructure strategically positioned to meet demands and challenges of modern Data Centers.
