Bias-Free Language
The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Are you ready to accelerate your hybrid-cloud journey? With Cisco, you can.
We have created Cisco HyperFlex Express to simplify the onboarding process, especially for new customers, and to get products on site quickly.
With HyperFlex Express, we have taken our most popular Cisco HyperFlex M6 generation node configurations, and we provide the flexibility to select options that work for your workloads and allow you to deploy the nodes with or without Cisco UCS fabric interconnects.
● Easy onboarding: Easy to onboard, deploy, and manage
● Flexible options: You choose what configuration will power your business
● Hybrid cloud ready: Cloud management of all your infrastructure with the Cisco Intersight platform
● Simplified management: With advisories from Intersight before problems arise
HyperFlex Express is simplified for easy onboarding. You can select your configuration with our sizing tool, deploy in hours rather than days, maintain visibility and control of your hybrid cloud, and manage your entire solution with the Cisco Intersight cloud operations platform.
With high-velocity HyperFlex Express, you have the flexibility to select 1-rack-unit (1RU) or 2RU all-NVMe, all-flash, or hybrid configurations. Once you select your base system, you choose processors, memory sizes, and storage types and sizes. HyperFlex Express configurations have been carefully selected to work with or without fabric interconnects, adding to its flexibility. Table 1 lists the options you have with these two form factors.
Cisco Intersight provides an essential hybrid-cloud control point for Cisco HyperFlex Express and all your infrastructure. With Intersight, you can get more value by simplifying operations across on-premises data centers, edge sites, and public clouds, continuously optimizing and accelerating your ability to deliver services. With Intersight, your teams can intelligently visualize, optimize, and orchestrate all your applications and infrastructure anywhere they are deployed.
Intersight can automatically configure your HyperFlex Express cluster. It provides ongoing, Day 2 and beyond, management, visibility, and maintenance, and it helps you set up your hybrid-cloud operations. If you have trouble, the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) can answer to your questions and help solve any problems
