Emulex Publishes Convergenomics

Emulex Corporation published Convergenomics – The Guide to Network Convergence Solutions, a comprehensive introduction to network convergence based on Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE).

It includes:

• An assessment of the challenges facing the data center and the business case for FCoE
• Use cases and applications that will be addressed with the first wave of FCoE deployments
• An overview of the technology evolution and standards activities leading to the FCoE paradigm
• A review of networking building blocks, such as software, storage, switches and management tools for FCoE environments
• Contributions from key infrastructure partners, including Cisco, EMC, Panduit, Scalent Systems and VMware

Traditionally, data centers have used specialized networks to meet individual I/O connectivity requirements – one for net–working, storage and clustering. With increasing deployments of blades and server virtualization, data centers are inherently facing huge network sprawl, primarily driven by deployments of multiple 1Gb/s Ethernet links and the need for external storage connectivity. Network convergence solutions simplify network infrastructure and provide the foundation for creating an agile data center.

Convergenomics – The Guide to Network Convergence Solutions will help you simplify networking, reduce costs and increase business agility with data center network convergence.
