NetApp and Cisco recently announced a partnership to deliver a fully virtualized dynamic data center architecture that combines the benefits of Cisco Unifed Compute System (UCS) and NetApp unified storage.  In the May issue of Tech ONTap, I wrote an article that describes some of the technology behind this joint offering with links to an expanded joint white paper for full details.

What do you think about the combination of UCS and NetApp unified storage? Does it make sense for your data center? Why or why not?
