    I personally don't have many occasions where I would not recommend Intel Server System. The only time I would recommend other products is when it came to the overall cost. There are times when you can find server systems at a more affordable price that can do the work at the lower price.

    There are good use cases for both technologies, and each will have its place, UCS X-Series is good when looking at additional or external Storage solutions, and scalable computing performance in a compact form factor. Cisco HX is good for incorporating Compute and Storage in single ease of use form factor.
