Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) is the worldwide leader in IT that helps companies seize the opportunities of tomorrow by proving that amazing things can happen when you connect the previously unconnected. Cisco hardware, software, and service offerings are used to create Internet solutions so that individuals, companies and countries have seamless access to information — regardless of differences in time and place. Cisco’s diverse product suite spans core to edge networking, wireless, security, mobility, unified computing, communications, collaboration, video, the cloud and the Internet of Things. Together these solutions help to support and optimize the operations of organizations worldwide.

As businesses become more geographically dispersed and employees become more mobile, collaboration becomes more valuable. On the most basic level, the ability to collaborate quickly and effectively helps you get stuff done faster. Decisions don’t have to wait for the next face-to-face meeting. Operational efficiency is improved. From a strategic perspective, collaboration accelerates the pace of innovation, allowing you to gain competitive advantages by quickly responding to new market conditions and customer needs. Unfortunately, collaboration tools make security and regulatory compliance more difficult to manage. The consumerization of IT has made it easy for employees to find and deploy applications that help them do their job faster. Why wait for IT when you can take care of the situation yourself? Well, there are a few reasons. Those free, cloud-based tools you’re using without IT’s knowledge or permission aren’t being monitored or controlled. They’re probably not as secure as enterprise-grade collaboration tools. As a result, the data you’re sharing on those applications, from intellectual property and trade secrets to customer data and service contracts, could be exposed to unauthorized parties without anyone knowing it.

 In many cases, employees use free tools as a temporary fix while they wait for IT to approve and deploy a solution. Once the approved tool is implemented, the temporary fix is often forgotten – along with the sensitive data and messages that just couldn’t wait for an IT-approved solution. Even if these tools aren’t hacked, simply using applications that don’t meet minimum regulatory requirements can expose your organization to a hefty fine. Cisco recently introduced several enhancements to its Cisco Spark collaboration platform that reduce security and compliance risk, enabling highly regulated organizations to take advantage of cloud-based collaboration tools. As a Cisco Gold Certified Partner, Technologent met all the standards set forth by Cisco in networking competencies, services, support, and customer satisfaction. This recognition demonstrates that Technologent is qualified to sell, install, and support Cisco solutions in the United States. Technologent takes a holistic approach to the delivery of Cisco solutions, with a focus on technical excellence and long-term business value.

IT solutions

Cloud solutions enable organizations to focus less on management and maintenance of the IT infrastructure and more on the delivery of services. Resources are centrally controlled and automatically allocated to quickly provide users with the tools they need, whether that’s a new application, service or mobile device. Technologent deliver a full range of solutions to help solve some of your biggest business and technology challenges.

Software-Defined Data Center (SDDC) Solutions?

Legacy networking architectures that rely on tiers of switches, routers and protocols essentially tie applications to specific servers, which require days or even weeks to reconfigure when changes are necessary. That is directly opposed to the move toward a more agile and efficient IT infrastructure. Software-defined networking (SDN) applies principles of virtualization to the network layer to create more flexibility. SDN makes it possible to control all switches, routers and controllers through software - making it far easier to add or reconfigure devices.

In a software-defined data center (SDDC), the infrastructure is fully virtualized to create new levels of standardization and consolidation. Physical equipment can be right sized for power and cooling requirements, with servers and other hardware ramped up or down depending upon demand. Technologent is proficient in all the fundamental technologies underlying the software-defined approach, including virtualization and network control principles. To help you determine if a software-defined approach is appropriate for your network, the company has developed a workshop outlining recent developments, benefits and challenges of virtualized networks.
