Brocade Gen 5 Fibre Channel SAN switches and administration software program assist guarantee predictable efficiency, unmatched resiliency and ultra-fast entry to information for EMC VMAX3 storage
Brocade Fabric Vision know-how helps forestall issues earlier than they affect operations, speed up software deployments and dramatically cut back operational prices
Brocade (NASDAQ: BRCD) in the present day introduced the corporate’s Gen 5 Fibre Channel storage space community (SAN) applied sciences play a vital position in delivering reliability and predictable efficiency for the brand new EMC VSPEX with VMAX™ 100K converged infrastructure answer that was unveiled in the present day at EMC World. The new answer is predicated on the EMC VSPEX reference structure and is designed for virtualized cloud-based supply and administration of IT sources.
VSPEX with VMAX3 100K is goal constructed to ship and handle predictable service ranges at scale for hybrid clouds. This is designed to offer prospects with the power to seamlessly bridge their VMware non-public cloud deployment with public clouds, paving the way in which ahead to hyperconsolidate and join on- and off-premise workloads right into a hybrid cloud setting.
Brocade Gen 5 Fibre Channel SAN switches and administration software program present a strong .basis between the VMAX3 100K storage arrays and servers. All components of this reference structure have been examined and licensed as an answer by EMC.
“Converged infrastructures for high-end, business-critical applications fill a huge void in the marketplace,” stated Jack Rondoni, vice chairman, storage networking, at Brocade. “For these environments, Brocade Fibre Channel fabrics allow the server and storage to realize their full potential by maximizing network uptime, simplifying SAN management and providing unprecedented visibility and insight across the entire storage network.”
The SAN for VSPEX with VMAX3 100K is constructed on Brocade Gen 5 Fibre Channel SAN switching and Fabric Vision™ monitoring and community diagnostic applied sciences. Branded and bought via the EMC Connectrix household, the Brocade SAN helps guarantee predictable efficiency, unmatched resiliency and ultra-fast entry to information saved on the EMC VMAX3 100K arrays, every of that are obligatory for making certain predictable service ranges, at scale, for hybrid clouds.
Brocade Fabric Vision know-how is superior {hardware} and software program that mixes capabilities from Brocade {hardware}, the embedded working system (Brocade Fabric OS) and administration software program (Brocade Network Advisor). Leveraging modern monitoring, diagnostics and administration capabilities, Brocade Fabric Vision know-how supplies directors with the power to anticipate and preempt issues earlier than they affect operations, speed up software efficiency and dramatically cut back operational prices.
“Brocade Fibre Channel SANs are a trusted, best-of-breed solutions for more than 50,000 EMC high-end storage customers in many of the world’s most demanding environments,” stated Gil Shneorson, Vice President, General Manager, VSPEX, EMC Corporation. “The Brocade SAN technologies were a logical choice for supporting the VSPEX VMAX 100K converged architecture to enable the same reliability, agility and simplicity for enterprises who want to deliver services via hybrid-cloud IT architectures.”
