IBM BladeCenter H With Cisco VFrame Software - A Comparison With HP Virtual Connect
Overview This white paper describes how Cisco VFrame Server Fabric Virtualization Software works with IBM BladeCenter H to provide scalable, policy-based server provisioning and helps to increase automation and flexibility in the data center. It compares the IBM and Cisco Systems solution to the HP Virtual Connect product. Cisco VFrame software offers fabric-based server I/O virtualization that automates blade server deployment, provisioning and dynamic balancing of blade server capacity across multiple applications. Offered in a redundant, appliance-hosting model, Cisco VFrame software provides high levels of scalability, performance and I/O virtualization. Specific to I/O virtualization, Cisco VFrame software is fully integrated with the Cisco Systems 4X InfiniBand Switch Module, which offers true 10Gbps switching from every server blade to a Cisco SFS 3012 Multifabric Server Switch.
