sponsored by Storage Decisions
ABSTRACT:
Industry efforts to promote and update Ethernet have been taking shape over the last year. This includes both enhanced performance and function as Fibre Channel vendors look towards Ethernet as the physical transport for the future of Fibre Channel in the data center and the convergence to a unified datacenter fabric.
This presentation will look at the issues surrounding the marketing and development of Fibre Channel over Ethernet as well as some viable alternatives to that approach. Topics include:-
What is Fibre Channel over Fibre Channel (FCoFC)?
What is Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)?
What is this "new" Ethernet all about - CEE, DCE & DCB?
What are the viable alternatives to FCoE deployment?
iSCSI vs. FCoE approaches - Separating facts from fiction
