Cisco UCS X-Series vs. IBM LinuxONE

I have experienced great services from this platform in both cloud and on-premise. It has streamlined technology in all our cloud servers providing operational centre for any kind of data. It has enhanced effective networking program that controls workflows in the entire organization. The modular system gives predictive insights that helps us to prepare for future and avoid any risks that can lead to drawback.

IBM LinuxONE dashboard is clean and friendly to welcome new users and the capabilities of the feature are excellent and easy to pull multiple data from other third parties platforms through the IBM LinuxONE integration functions and the data merging tools are very excellent. Multiple data processing operations are easily managed and monitored through this software and the reports are effective.

• Cisco Provide the Centralized management to collect all information.
• Easy User Interface to use and execute the daily routine operation.
• Performance and stability are much better.

Incentivized

• Valuable insights from the reports
• Scalable
• Easy to manage different data centers

Incentivized

• Config on the hardware specification of each server. E.g. bios, cpu power etc.
• FI edit of configuration can't be done
• Minimum # of psu

Cisco UCS X is designed to have a simplified management especially using Cisco Intersight. Having a single pane of glass GUI platform to manage every servers on your chassis across multiple data center globally. The modularity allows users to easily incorporate future technologies (like new compute nodes or I/O modules) to adapt to changing workload needs, preserving the initial investment and reducing total cost of ownership. The system is highly flexible, supporting a wide range of workloads including traditional enterprise applications.

There are good use cases for both technologies, and each will have its place, UCS X-Series is good when looking at additional or external Storage solutions, and scalable computing performance in a compact form factor. Cisco HX is good for incorporating Compute and Storage in single ease of use form factor.

Incentivized

LinuxONE has better scalability and price/performance metrics.

Incentivized

• Reduced the amount of C-series required and reduced the number of switches as a result.
• Reduced the required amount of rack space

Incentivized

• Pulling of multiple and big data from different channels.
• Project workflow management is effective via the tool.
• Project data processing and data management.
