“The Nexus 1000V simplifies collaboration within the IT department by clearly separating responsibilities for our server group and network group”
Rory Regan, Telecom Manager
“Taking control of the Cisco Nexus 1000V was simplified and intuitive. The process of virtualization of our datacenter will in fact accelerate and we will be able to virtualize everything that has been not possible in the past.”
Julien Mousqueton, Technical Architect

Virtualize 30% More Applications
Virtualize general compute with a consistent policy workflow from P V
Virtualize DMZ’s with VLAN isolation, and security policy enforcement with ACL
Virtualize PCI, SOX, HIPAA applications with Netflow, ERSPAN, and port statistics
Virtualize Tier-1 applications with LACP, vPC host mode
Virtualize VDI with DHCP Snooping, Port Security, Dynamic ARP Inspection

30% Less Hours on vNetwork
With a distributed switch, network change requests take 1 hour per domain rather than 30 minutes per server (for 3 servers that is 30% less hours/yr)
With Nexus 1000V, regulatory and organizational audits take 20 minutes per server rather than 1 hour
With Nexus 1000V, the server admin may offload network configuration to the network admin, this division of labor increases productivity
Fewer hours “keeping the lights on” means more hours “innovating”
