LAS VEGAS - Nov. 1, 2011
News Highlights:
Latest milestone in ongoing expansion of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) storage and networking ecosystem
Addresses growing need for 10GbE bandwidth in Enterprise data centers
Worlds fastest FCoE performance - 80 percent faster than nearest competitor[1]
Broadcom Corporation (NASDAQ: BRCM), a global innovation leader in semiconductor solutions for wired and wireless communications, today announced that its converged network adapters (CNAs) have successfully completed the NetApp-validated Ethernet Advantage Program[2]. NetApps validation is the latest in a series of recent milestones for Broadcom in its ongoing expansion of 10GbE storage and networking ecosystem. Visit www.broadcom.com to learn more.
Enterprise data centers demand higher bandwidth and 10GbE Ethernet connectivity to support server virtualization, consolidation and convergence. The NetApp Ethernet Advantage program is designed to create a trusted ecosystem to accelerate FCoE deployment by offering customers fully tested configurations supported by best-in-class vendors. The NetApp Ethernet Advantage Program incorporates automated testing and best practices that are used to qualify FCoE solutions. The performance results in the NetApp Interoperability Matrix Tool (IMT) enable customers and partners to verify end-to-end solutions and to design the most robust FCoE, fibre channel, and iSCSI solutions.
Broadcoms FCoE solution unites data and storage networks on a common 10GbE fabric, significantly reducing power and cooling costs while minimizing overall system complexity. With performance speeds of up to 1.7 million input/output operations per second (IOPs) - more than 80 percent faster than the nearest competitor - it delivers multiprotocol support including Level 2 (L2) networking, Network Attached Storage (NAS), Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) offload and FCoE offload connectivity.
Visit Broadcom at the NetApp Insight Show, Las Vegas, Nov. 1-4 2011, MGM Grand Hotel.
