Overview
HP and Cisco share a long history of collaborating to deliver successful data center solutions. Our alliance combines Cisco’s industry leadership in networking infrastructure with HP’s world-class leadership in IT solutions, services, support, and consulting. Together, we provide enterprises with a single, global resource to meet a broad range of platform, network, storage, software, and service requirements-from design and deployment to integration and support. Today, you can leverage this experience and our complementary enterprise strategies to smooth your transition to the next-generation data center.

One of the first steps of this transition is to free technology resources from being locked in silos, so that they can be shared dynamically. The HP Adaptive Infrastructure strategy is designed to do just that. The Adaptive Infrastructure utilizes standard technology building blocks, including modular hardware and intelligent software that automates resource utilization and administration. This automation is the foundation for 24 x 7, lights-out computing, which is at the heart of the next-generation data center.
