Using Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCo E) and related technologies, data centers can consolidate data traffic onto a single network switch, simplifying their environments, promoting virtualization, and substantially reducing power and cooling costs. This emerging technology is drawing immense excitement, but few enterprise IT decision-makers and implementers truly understand it. I/O Consolidation in the Data Center is the only complete, up-to-date guide to FCo E. FCo E innovators Silvano Gai and Claudio De Santi (chair of the T11 FCo E standards working group) systematically explain the technology: its benefits, tradeoffs, and what it will take to implement it successfully in production environments. Unlike most other discussions of FCo E, this book fully reflects the final, recently-approved industry standard. The authors also present five detailed case studies illustrating typical FCo E adoption scenarios, as well as an extensive Q and A section addressing the issues enterprise IT professionals raise most often. This is a fully updated version of Silvano Gai’s privately-published book on FCo E, written for leading FCo E pioneer Nuova Systems before the company was acquired by Cisco. Nearly 12, 000 copies of that book have already been distributed, demonstrating the immense interest in FCo E technology, and the scarcity of reliable information that has existed about it.
