Cisco, EMC & VMware form data centre coalition

摘要

Cisco, EMC and VMware have formed a coalition to help enterprise customers build 'private cloud' virtualised data centres by offering a complete data centre package of integrated servers, storage, networking and virtualisation software. The coalition, known as the Virtual Computing Environment, expands on relationships Cisco announced with VMware, EMC and others in March when it announced an increased focus on the data centre market. In that announcement, Cisco unveiled its own blade servers and the Cisco Unified Computing Architecture (UCS) designed to "unite compute, network, storage access, and virtualisation resources into a single energy efficient system."
