In the first video you described that, based on vmware best practices, we should PHYSICALLY seperate vm traffic from management traffic, VLANs are not adequate. How do you provide this physical seperation using UCS, based on VMWare's best practices?
You mentioned in the last video that you wouldn't go down the path of 10Gbe on the blade infrastructure yet you are comparing 1Gb NICs to 10Gb. Getting 10Gbe on blades is simple as many of them are coming with dual integrated 10Gbe NICs or you can purchase a card. When you purchase the chassis pass-thru or switch, it integrates with ANY 10Gbe solution. In other words, you don't need a special switch! Flex-nic technology allows you to split the NICs into almost any number of speeds.
Thank you finally a good explanation with less marketing garbage :).

-1 for not mentioning the prices for the unified fabric.. Cisco's Nexus switch is EXPENSIVE!
