Applications on the UCS E-Series



Application Deployed by VerticalsWAN Edge Applications That Defy Centralization

Retail

• Home Grown – Banking or Teller applications

• Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)

• Virtual Wireless LAN Controller

• Cisco Prime Monitoring

• Virtual WAAS

Financial

• Digital Image Storage

• Patient Data Storage

• Billing Applications

• Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)

• Virtual WAAS

• Video Surveillance Manager

• Video Surveillance Manager

• Database Server – Oracle, MySQL

• ECDS – Training VODs

• 3rd Party Analytical Software (Scopics/RetailNext)


Customer Success - RetailFood retailer which operates in eight countries. The principal activity is the operation of food supermarkets.

Challenge :

Keep a small I.T. footprint in their stores, resiliency for maximum uptime to transact business, that would meet their needs today and ‘carry us 5 years down the road’

“Religious” preferences for HP compute, and by their own admission, “we’re going to recommend building a warehouse to house a table, and we know we’re overbuilding.”

Address how we would ‘segment duties’ if a Server Admin would need access to the UCS E-Series (perception is, ‘this would introduce complexity’).

Next Gen Store Architecture

Retailex POS running on Microsoft HyperV on the Double Wide UCS E-Series Server Blade

ISR G2 2921 running Communications Manager Express(CME), FXS/FXO voice interfaces and Security

500+ units Cisco UCS-E140D-M1/K9 server blades. Ordered for US. Plan to roll this out globally to 1000+ locations



Customer Success – Finance (Retail Banking)Commercial bank headquartered in Anchorage, Alaska, Northrim Bank employs 250 people in 11 branches across 350 miles in southern Alaska.

Challenge :

Northrim wanted to upgrade the bank's legacy infrastructure to dramatically increase the speed of service at the bank's teller stations.

A slow circuit-based network created high latency problems that affected expensive third-party banking software applications that were very sensitive to bandwidth delay.

Several times a day, users encountered sluggish application response or program errors that required re-login or even rebooting the system, a frustrating and time-consuming occurrence.

Next Gen Branch Architecture

VMWare Horizon View running on Vmware ESXi , Microsoft AD, DNS,DHCP on the Double Wide UCS E-Series Server Blade

Plans to add Unified Communcations , FXS/FXO voice interfaces and Security

Cisco 2951 and 3945 ISRs with Cisco UCS-E160D-M1/K9 server blades.



Customer Success - HealthCareCharlotte Associates is a healthcare provider with 16 locations across N.C.

Challenge:

Due for hardware upgrade, too large of branch footprint, 16 locations but 9 member IT staff

Original Infrastructure

Primary DC in HQ and secondary DC 20 miles away

Mission Critical applications (EMR, etc.) and Voice ran centrally on VMware and pushed out to branches via Citrix

Each branch: Cisco Router + Catalyst 2960 + Dell Server (domain authentication, file, print services, DNS, DHCP, and local app hosting

Deployed UCS E-Series (w/ VMware) in each branch:

Reduction in real estate and power consumption

Manage entire network centrally

One service contract (deployed Cisco 5100 + UCS B-200 + at UCS Manager)
