Data centers continue to evolve, creating a need for infrastructure that can support growth in Virtual Machines (VMs), distributed applications, and data as well as the transition to cloud-based computing— without compromising performance. However, traditional data centers typically use inflexible, three-tier network designs that cannot efficiently manage east-west traffic or deliver the bandwidth needed to support virtualization and new services delivery. To meet these challenges, data center operators need high-performance networks that are easy to manage, can scale out on demand, and can adapt to future application requirements and network architecture approaches. Brocade® VCS® fabrics running on the Brocade VDX® 8770 Switch allow organizations to create data center networks that just work. Together, these technologies provide unmatched automation, efficiency, and elasticity in support of the most demanding workloads—including big data, rich media, and mission-critical applications—especially in highly dynamic cloud environments
Features:
- Simplifies and automates network architectures to enable elastic cloud networking with Brocade VCS Fabric technology
- Enables easy scale-out of Brocade VCS fabrics with unified logical chassis management
- Provides efficiently load-balanced multipathing at Layers 1, 2, and 3, and multiple active Layer 3 gateways
- Delivers 40 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) wire-speed switching with auto-trunking Inter-Switch Links (ISLs) for non-disruptive scaling, with direct connections for more than 8000 server ports per fabric
