Why should I modernize my data center network?
Modernizing your data center network can help address performance demands and operational complexity while keeping pace with evolving business needs. Key reasons include reducing network complexity, meeting AI/ML requirements, achieving sustainability goals, enhancing security, managing multi-fabric environments, and supporting growth management. For instance, organizations that adopted Cisco Nexus Dashboard reported a 26% improvement in team productivity, highlighting the benefits of streamlined management.
How can I ensure my data center supports AI/ML applications?
To support AI/ML applications, your data center needs low-latency, lossless networks. This involves having the right hardware and software configurations tailored for AI workloads. Cisco's AI-native infrastructure is designed to deliver high performance and throughput, which is essential for these applications. According to the Cisco Global AI Readiness Index, while 97% of businesses recognize that AI will increase infrastructure workloads, only 17% have networks flexible enough to handle this complexity.
What are the sustainability considerations for data centers?
Sustainability is crucial as data centers consume significant energy, especially with the rise of AI/ML workloads. To manage costs and reduce emissions, it's important to explore energy-efficient solutions and practices. Cisco offers tools and services that can help improve energy management and resource efficiency. For example, migrating to modern hardware like the Cisco Nexus 9800 Series Switches can help minimize your environmental footprint while providing insights into energy consumption and sustainability metrics.
