Cisco pushes container-type data centers to compete with HP IBM

Cisco launched its first container-type data center in Monday, although it is late to enter a small data center market, but offers some unique http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/17569.html "> management functions, so Cisco and other vendors are very different.

Cisco selects a 40-foot container, placing orders within 90-120 days after Cisco can install and run the data center. A Cisco Product Marketing engineer says Cisco wants users to use Cisco products mainly in containers, but the racks inside the container can also allow users to use other vendors ' equipment.

It is reported that Cisco's container-type data center can be installed up to 16 racks, the maximum power supply for each rack 25-kilowatt. This container can be placed side-by or stacked to save ground area.

The price of the data center depends on the configuration and deployment of the product. Overall, the cost of a container-type data center is typically more than 1 million dollars, including in-house IT equipment.
