Mumbai, Jun 24, 2008
Brocade has announced the availability of three new Brocade 8 gigabits-per-second (Gb/s) fabric switches for the HP StorageWorks B-Series SAN Connection portfolio. Increasing the industry-leading performance of the Brocade DCX Backbone and 48000 Director, the new family of switches offers industry high-performance and reduces the amount of energy requirements in the data center.
These switches are designed to optimize data centers that plan to implement virtualized servers for consolidation efficiencies by increasing server, and storage utilization. With configurations that range from 8 to 80 ports, they offer unmatched scalability. The new products further advance Brocade's energy-efficient capabilities by consuming 40% less power per port than previous models.
Ian Whiting, vice president and general manager (Data Center Infrastructure Division) of Brocade said, "Integrating the newest Brocade fabric switches into the HP StorageWorks SAN portfolio enables HP customers to further consolidate servers, storage and the networking infrastructure. Companies will gain greater performance, scalability and cost savings from their existing data center networking investments."
Bob Wilson, vice president and general manager (StorageWorks Storage Platform Division) of HP said, "Customers are looking for a low-cost and scalable storage infrastructure to support their company growth. These solutions provide customers with high performance, scalability and simplified storage management for today's most demanding storage environments, at an affordable price. This means customers do not need to sacrifice technology investments for their business needs."
