Cisco IT - Legacy Unix Migration

Opportunity–pre-UCS

208 Unix instances Mostly Oracle DB (50 Prod + 275 Non-Prod)

Initial estimate: $11M cost savings opportunity p.a.

Approach

Results to Date

Analysis: no performance showstoppers Most demanding DB (C3, 8000 Oracle DB tps) to migrate

to 8- or 12-node RAC 32-core C-series UCS Leverage transformational opportunities (migration)

Cluster File System needed

Target

Cisco DCs migrated to UCS by Q1FY’12

52% of Unix DBs to UCS/Linux migrations in progress Plan-of-record established, application teams buy-in
