How Cisco IT Automated End-to-End Infrastructure Provisioning In an Internal Private Cloud

Cisco’s competitive advantage stems from its ability to rapidly introduce innovative products and more efficient business solutions. The advantage depends on Cisco® employees’ ability to quickly obtain IT infrastructure for new projects. “In the past, data center infrastructure tended to be difficult to scale and costly, affecting internal user satisfaction,” says Brian Cinque, CITEIS solutions architect. Employees who requested IT infrastructure for a project had to wait six to eight weeks while Cisco IT engineers architected a solution, designed it, found a place to put it, and then procured, installed, configured, and secured the infrastructure. The long wait impeded business agility, affected user satisfaction, and increased costs.
