  • How to optimize Ethernet for data center networks

    It will take time for super-fast data center Ethernet technologies to evolve, so managers of data center networks must optimize existing Ethernet through a series of strategies that range from choosing very large switches to isolating storage network...  Tip

  • Cloud computing network primer

    Cloud computing network architecture is moving toward a flat, leaf-spine topology, enabling reduced latency and balancing bandwidth, providing any-to-any connectivity within and between servers. Learn more in this primer.  Primer

  • Cisco UCS testing shows throughput constraints, one lab says

    Cisco UCS testing results from the Tolly Group indicate that throughput is much lower than Cisco claims. Tolly claims Cisco unified computing architecture relies on oversubscribed blade servers and clumsy external switches.  Article

  • Managing unified networking and storage fabric: Who's in charge?

    When it comes to managing unified fabric, the jury is out on who's in charge. FCoE switches and adapters have LAN and SAN elements and can be managed by existing network or storage interfaces. But the two teams have very different approaches.  Tip

  • Unified fabric: Data center bridging and FCoE implementation

    IT organizations planning to deploy a unified storage and network fabric through data center bridging and FCoE implementation must consider a host of components, such as adapters, and configuration plans.  Tip

  • Storage certification guide for networking pros

    Networking pros are seeking storage training as they become responsible for converging data center and storage networks. Storage certification programs may offer the right skills -- or at least a start.  Guide

  • Unified data center fabric primer: FCoE and data center bridging

    Unified data center fabrics combine FCoE and data center bridging to enable SAN and LAN traffic to run on the same physical network, simplifying network architecture and resulting in savings. This unified data center fabric primer runs down the basic...  Tip

  • Juniper to CIOs: Invest in internal cloud computing networks

    Juniper's 'New Network' vision calls on companies to invest in an internal cloud computing network strategy to push applications and power out to users in an enterprise grid network strategy. But are enterprises ready to go that route?  Article

  • FCoE network roadmap: Do you need a unified fabric strategy?

    Some vendors are coming to the table with FCoE network roadmaps, but others are still releasing switches that can't necessarily support any converged enhanced Ethernet protocol in the data center. Should you be demanding a unified fabric strategy fro...  Article

  • 10 Gigabit Ethernet tutorial: Connecting data centers, storage, LAN and beyond

    As IT teams build 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks, they'll have to choose the right 10 Gigabit Ethernet cabling and components in order to ensure data center optimization and prevent latency in the network. They''ll also need to be sure their networks a...  Expert Lesson
