Editor's Notes
- WHY need it? WHAT it is? HOW it will happen!
- Let’s look at the rack server environment today. In today’s environment… Servers connect to the LAN with multiple network interface cards (NICs) Servers require HBAs to connect to an existing Fibre Channel SAN Many of today’s data centers are running at 1 Gigabit Ethernet speed Multiple server adapters require more power and cooling costs
- Also coming in 2010 – 16Gb FC, 40/100 Gb Ethernet
- FC has a large and well managed install base Drive for I/O consolidation iSCSI strength was to use existing network infrastructure and skill set to offer lower-cost connectivity for consolidation, but management of large iSCSI environments is cumbersome Not rip and replace or new management paradigm, but incremental transition
- FCoE is NOT the death of iSCSI (just like iSCSI was not the death of FC) – plenty of room for both; both add to the overall SAN market (meet the needs of the growing virtualization market).
