Cisco Data Center 3.0 helps you evolve your data center to achieve the technical, financial, and business benefits of data center virtualization, networking and cloud computing. Data Center 3.0 is built on the concept of investment protection through the leveraging of existing infrastructure and granular integration of new technologies and platforms to meet business needs.

The central element is data center virtualization, which offers:

• Lower total cost of ownership (improved asset utilization and reduced, infrastructure, power, and cooling demands)
• Increased resilience 
• Improved agility and responsiveness.

These virtualization solutions extend from the desktop and the branch to the data center and include the network services, storage services, security, and L4-7 application services. Cisco data center solutions are based on tested, proven designs that enable low-risk, incremental evolution.
