Key partners
This initiative promises to have a profound effect on the enterprise computing industry, not least due to those companies partnering with Cisco and those not.
The photo below shows the main players who are, from left to right: Gary Moore, SVP of Advanced Services for Cisco; Rob Lloyd, EVP designate of Worldwide Operations for Cisco; Paul Maritz, president and CEO of VMWare; Paul Otellini, president and CEO of Intel; John Chambers, chairman and CEO of Cisco; Prem Jain, SVP of Server and Access Virtualization Business Unit for Cisco; Mario Mazzola, SVP of Server and Access Virtualization Business Unit for Cisco.
Note the absence of AMD and Microsoft for starters.
Rather than give you our interpretation of UCS we urge you to watch Cisco chairman and CEO John Chambers explain it in the video clip below, click replay to watch.
