Why Cisco's data center strategy depends on simplifying storage - TechRepublic: "Cisco recently announced a MapR-based SAP HANA appliance. MapR is described as a converged data platform, and Cisco is leveraging the platform to create a dedicated x86-based SAN for the SAP HANA persistent layer.
A major difference between HyperFlex and the MapR-based SAP HANA appliance is the storage and compute nodes are not mixed. MapR creates a dedicated layer for storage separate from the application servers.
Cisco's storage strategy has a complicated history. The current set of technologies is focused on specific verticals. However, Cisco needs to place some consistency behind a single strategy before customers buy wholesale into a Cisco-only data center strategy."
