Cooperation Enables Customers to Connect Data Centers Using Latest-Generation
Fibre Channel and Fibre Channel-over-Ethernet Protocols
Norcross, Georgia, USA and Martinsried/Munich, Germany. March 28, 2011. ADVA
Optical Networking today announced its participation in the Brocade Developer
Program, which will enable enterprise customers the ability to efficiently roll-
out next-generation data center technologies between their sites.
"ADVA Optical Networking has a long history of providing best-in-breed solutions
for the enterprise and data-center marketplace," said Christoph Glingener, CTO
of ADVA Optical Networking. "By working with Brocade, we continue to innovate
and to be the first to introduce new technologies. The cooperation of our two
market-leading companies in the data center space will allow customers to adapt
new technologies like 16G Fibre Channel (FC) and Data Center Bridging (DCB) much
more quickly and with the certainty that it will interoperate successfully."
ADVA Optical Networking's optical transmission technologies provide the
platforms for IT decision-makers to gain efficiencies by implementing solutions
across multiple sites. The company's flagship product, the FSP 3000, is able to
transport several Terabit/s of data capacity over virtually any distance,
enabling customers to cost effectively transfer any type of Fibre Channel and
Enhanced Ethernet traffic between data centers. The FSP 3000 supports all FC
data rates as well as 10G FCIP/FCoE (Fibre Channel over Internet Protocol/Fibre
Channel over Ethernet). The transparent high-speed transmission technology of
the FSP 3000 eliminates the need for costly gateways or routers and provides the
lowest latencyin the industry. In addition, it features an in-flight encryption
function that enables highest-security data transmission.
"The main purpose behind the Brocade Developer Program is to continually drive
innovation through end-to-end testing of complementary networking products so
that customers can continue to deploy new solutions with confidence," said
Patric Chang, director of strategic alliances at Brocade. "ADVA Optical
Networking's inclusion within the program provides its customers with a level of
assurance that their solutions have met the rigors of an enterprise data center
environment."
With customers required to implement a multitude of new technologies and
applications, it has become essential that vendors offering complementary
technology cooperate in order to develop and test common end-to-end solutions.
ADVA Optical Networking's lowest-latency, flexible optical networking solutions,
combined with Brocade's expertise in data center networking present the ideal
combination to enable the roll-out of traditional disaster recovery and business
continuity solutions, as well as next-generation cloud computing architectures.
"Currently, the data center industry is heavily focused on the convergence
toward Ethernet in their world," concluded Glingener. "But the reality is that
we are facing everything except convergence. The introduction of a multitude of
new and different protocols and applications has left the landscape more complex
than ever before. Customers therefore rely on us and our partners to reduce this
complexity and to provide simple and elegant solutions to their problems."
