At Cisco Live in Las Vegas, Tegile Systems announced integration with Cisco UCS Director. According to the two companies this integration will enable enterprises to orchestrate and automate an end-to-end IT converged infrastructure management process. Enterprises will be able to seamlessly manage storage, compute, and networking from a single user interface, which in turn could lead to increasing agility and operational efficiency.

Tegile claims that the integration of its IntelliStack with Cisco UCS Director will improve consistency, efficiency, and speed. The integration enables the deployment of the latest in flash storage technology from Tegile and supports it with Cisco UCS Director interface, which will manage infrastructure components including compute, network, virtualization, and storage as well as public clouds such as Amazon and Azure. Cisco UCS Director will automate provisioning and de-provisioning of private and public cloud data center resources, which, Tegile states, will reduce delivery time from days to weeks. The integration will also bring Tegile’s data reduction capabilities that can enable real-time monitoring, dynamic load balancing, and optimum resource usage. These technologies that are integrating will allow companies better management of flash-based workloads.

The integration of IntelliStack with Cisco UCS Director supports several hypervisors including VMware ESX, Microsoft Hyper-V, and Red Hat KVM hypervisors and public clouds such as Amazon and Azure. Along with automated provisioning and de- provisioning of private and public cloud data center resources, this integration will also enable single-touch deployment of virtual machines, hosts, and virtual networks. Also a broad OS guest support facilitates cloning of Windows and Linux virtual machines, and monitors host and virtual machine memory and resource use.
