this week and our theme is <a href="http://www.cisco.com/web/learning/le21/le34/vmworld/index.html" target="_blank">Bring IT: Unleash the Possibilities</a>. You’ll see this theme unfold throughout the Cisco activities at <a href="http://www.cisco.com/web/learning/le21/le34/vmworld/index.html" target="_blank">VMworld</a> – where we’ll be featuring our <a href="http://www.cisco.com/go/um" target="_blank">data center automation and cloud management software</a> this week.</p> <p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-151577" alt="BvhPNK1CQAAapHh.jpg-large" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/blogs-images-new/ciscoblogs/1/BvhPNK1CQAAapHh.jpg-large.jpeg" width="330" height="148" /></p> <p>In particular, we’re bringing <a href="http://cisco.com/go/ucsdirector" target="_blank">Cisco UCS Director</a> to VMworld and it will be featured in our demos, theater presentations, and breakout sessions at the show. If you’re not already familiar with UCS Director, it’s our flagship infrastructure automation software – for provisioning not only VMs but also bare metal servers, storage, networking, and layer 4-7 services. It’s a key component of many of our solutions that you’ll see at VMworld.</p> <p>For example, check out the video below of application-centric cloud management and infrastructure automation, powered by Cisco UCS Director, <a href="http://cisco.com/go/service-catalog" target="_blank">Cisco Prime Service Catalog</a>, and the <a href="http://cisco.com/go/apic" target="_blank">Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller</a> (APIC):</p> <p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://youtu.be/lD-CYOIAj_g">http://youtu.be/lD-CYOIAj_g</a></p> <p>This past week, we also announced our new <a href="http://blogs.cisco.com/datacenter/announcing-cisco-ucs-performance-manager-performance-monitoring-and-capacity-planning-for-ucs-integrated-infrastructures/" target="_blank">Cisco UCS Performance Manager</a> software for performance monitoring of UCS and UCS-based integrated infrastructure – leveraging technology from our partner Zenoss.
