IDC’s Storage Capacity Forecast = ~40% CAGR (2014/2017)

IDC May 2014 ECB Enterprise Array Forecast

Keep Driving Growth! – No change

FCoE to storage is very slow growth.

NAS and iSCSI are #2 and #3 in the market & growing!

The Network Matters

• Storage requires purpose-built fabric architectures to ensure reliability and performance for critical applications and data

• Customers have built their mission critical infrastructure on a SAN

• Technology evolution in the data center can introduce significant risk to uptime

• FC and VCS fabrics enable advanced data center technologies like flash storage, server / Desktop virtualization, and cloud architectures

What Is an Ethernet Fabric?

The Network Matters for Storage Traditional Ethernet is Less Reliable

• Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) has many limitations in a storage environment

• Redundant links are not active, reducing increasing downtime risks

• Every topology change (link down, switch added/removed) requires re-calculation for traffic routing; adds latency and reduces performance

• Support for low hop counts, limiting SAN scale

Spanning tree protocol wasn’t built for storage

Ethernet Fabrics vs Legacy Networks Automation, Efficiency and Scale on demand

Inflexible: Rigid architecture, optimized for legacy client/server applications

Inefficient: Spanning Tree disables links to prevent loops, limiting network utilization

Complex: Each switch managed individually

VM-ignorant: No concept of server virtualization

Flexible: Topology freedom, optimized for east/west traffic patterns and virtualized applications

Efficient: All links in the fabric are active with Layer 1/2/3 multipathing

Simple: Entire fabric behaves as logical switch

VM-aware: Facilitates VM/network interoperability
