ADVA FSP 3000 Delivers Qualified and Cost-Effective Solution Supporting
Migration to Higher Speeds Required by Mainframes Clusters
Paris, France and Martinsried/Munich, Germany. November 15, 2011. ADVA Optical
Networking and P&TLuxembourg, the leading fixed and mobile telephone operator in
Luxembourg, announced today the industry's first commercial installation of a
high-end parallel sysplex over InfiniBand service in Luxembourg. Deployed in a
major financial institution's network, the solution provides a fully-secured,
Mainframe business continuity service. By leveraging the strengths of the ADVA
FSP 3000, including the universal SAN-muxponder 5TCE, the customer has
successfully migrated his Parallel Sysplex environment connecting two Mainframes
from a 2Gbit/s FICON-based solution to a higher bandwidth, more sophisticated
5Gbit/s InfiniBand optical connectivity running over a protected, route-diverse
physical fiber infrastructure.
"Our enterprise customers are at the cutting edge of network developments," said
Marc Schambourg, head of corporate and business customers at P&TLuxembourg.
"With mission-critical data flowing over their networks every second of every
day, they need the most robust networking solutions available. The ADVA FSP
3000 is critical to making this happen. When combined with our D-line managed
connectivity service and ebrc Tier IV classified and Systrust-certified data
centers, we have a combination that is tough to beat."
The ADVA FSP 3000 features a robust solution for coupling Mainframes over
distance by providing high-bandwidth and low-latency interconnect links that
enhance the synchronization of the servers. The platforms 5TCE card dramatically
reduces footprint and power consumption by supporting two 5Gbit/s InfiniBand
links on the same card. This card can also be used for encrypting different
types of services, including InfiniBand and 1-, 2-, 4-, 8- and 10Gbit/s Fibre
Channel.
"Our partnership with ADVA Optical Networking has seen us build some of the most
advanced enterprise networks in Europe," commented Carlo Richartz, head of
backbone deployment at P&TLuxembourg. "This is a company that understands how to
work with customers. More than this though, it's their attention to detail and
focus on differentiating features that really sets them apart. You only need to
look at their work on low-latency, reduced power consumption and security
encryption to see this in action."
"The enterprise community is always striving, pushing the boundaries of what can
be done," said Fabrice Jean, vice president of sales Western Europe and Nordics
for ADVA Optical Networking. "This is what drives us. We have one of the biggest
R&D teams within the industry and are continually developing our technology to
ensure the networks we build provide end-to-end compatibility regardless of the
protocols or standards used. P&TLuxembourg value this approach and together we
continue to find new ways to delight enterprise customers and develop the
solutions they need."
