Cisco upgrades Server System Energy saving 30% to 50%

The April 7 News, according to foreign media reports, network equipment manufacturers Cisco Tuesday (April 6) said it will upgrade its servers, and further enhance the competition with HP and IBM and other server manufacturers. Cisco launched the "Unified Computing System" (UCS) last year into the server market. The move has allowed Cisco to compete directly with HP and IBM, its longtime sales partner.　　Cisco recently said it could not change its reseller relationship with HP. Cisco says the latest upgrades, using Intel's latest processor and Cisco's own new network chips, will make the server more energy-efficient.　　Compared to the first generation system, the upgraded server will save 30% to 50% of the power supply. David Lawler, vice president of product marketing at Cisco server access and virtualization technology, says the company currently has more than 400 UCS users. This upgrade will help the company win more users. ' We just started shipping servers 9 months ago and it's a lot to attract so many customers, ' he said.　　Second-generation products will speed up the attraction of more users. With the growth of Internet traffic and the demand for complex technologies, companies have been looking for simpler and more energy-efficient ways to manage data centers.　　Vendors such as Cisco, Hewlett-Packard and IBM have been trying to drive this trend with advanced systems that include storage and virtualization technologies. Because of the economy, customers are looking for more innovative technologies that help them reduce costs, Lawler said.　　When the economic situation is difficult, you will find a way to do things with less cost.
