TECHNICAL ARTICLE:
In this technical brief we provide an overview of the reasons Data Center Bridging (DCB) is being developed and how it can improve networking in the data center for applications, servers, and storage.
EZINE:
Storage networks are an essential element of server virtualization, but there are several options available today. Is it better to invest in a separate SAN or move storage over Ethernet using iSCSI or FCoE technology? This article considers the tradeoffs of each approach and presents important considerations for both.
WHITE PAPER:
Managing enterprise networks is now a greater challenge than ever. Employees are everywhere, so NetOps need to keep a close eye on performance to make sure these employees can stay productive, wherever they are. Access our expert guide to explore best practices and tools for network management, and see how automation can help.
WHITE PAPER:
Read this brief paper to learn how network monitoring using DPI analyzers is a mission critical application that is tailor-made for the Data Access Network (DAN) architecture and saves substantial amounts of money for the telecom carrier.
EZINE:
Will physical network gear disappear in the era of software-defined networking and virtualization? Not likely. In this month's issue of Network Evolution, find out why networks still need hardware, and how early adopters are using hardware in their virtual environments.
WHITE PAPER:
Before making the jump to a 10 Gigabit Ethernet data center network, there are five questions you should ask yourself. View this whitepaper to learn what they are!
EGUIDE:
This guide discusses the two missions of cloud computing networks, as well as how to accomplish these goals. Also included are five requirements for successful cloud computing networks.
EGUIDE:
