Cisco Services Portfolio Intersight - Term License + Software Support - 1 license

Cisco Intersight is an IT operations platform for infrastructure lifecycle management delivered as-a-service or as a connected or private virtual appliance. It helps IT operations teams see, control, and automate their Cisco UCS, converged, and hyperconverged infrastructure - wherever it is - from one place. Intersight provides a single dashboard for managing and automating your on-premises and edge infrastructure throughout its lifecycle. Intersight supports the Cisco Unified Computing System (Cisco UCS), Cisco converged and hyperconverged infrastructure, Cisco networking platforms, virtualization and container platforms, third-party servers and storage, and other integration endpoints. Because it is software-as-a-service (SaaS), Intersight functionality increases and expands with weekly releases.

With Intersight, you get all the benefits of SaaS delivery and full lifecycle management of distributed infrastructure and workloads across data centers, remote sites, branch offices, and edge environments. This empowers you to deploy, configure, secure, update, maintain, automate, and scale your environment through a cloud-operating model in ways that were not previously possible. As a result, your organization can operate with consistency and control, stay in compliance, and strengthen your security posture to deliver IT infrastructure, resources, and applications faster to support business growth.

For Cisco infrastructure, Intersight works in conjunction with Cisco UCS Manager and Cisco Integrated Management Controller (IMC). In addition, Intersight integrates with third-party storage, servers, virtualization, and other SaaS services. You can simply associate a model-based configuration to provision servers and associated storage and fabric automatically, regardless of form factor. Using profiles, IT staff can consistently align policy, server personality, and workloads. These policies can be created once and used to simplify server deployments, resulting in improved productivity and compliance, and lower risk of failures due to inconsistent configuration. In addition, Cisco provides integrations to third-party operations tools, such as ServiceNow, to allow customers to use their existing solutions more efficiently.
