14 Brocade the Partner of Choice for IBM Data Center Networking Solution
15 Why Brocade? The Four P s : Performance Wire speed, non-blocking performance 10 Gbps today 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps ready for tomorrow! Port Density Greater density per chassis means smaller footprint, fewer management points, and the ability to deploy more assets Power Green solution supports Smarter Planet Lower power consumption means better ability to deploy other assets and applications against shrinking power budgets Reduces Operational Expenses (OpEx) for power and cooling Price Solutions that are less expensive to deploy versus conventional vendors Reduces Capital Expenses (CapEx) and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
16 Building Blocks for the DYNAMIC INFRASTRUCTURE IBM b-type Data Center Networking Scale server integration Flatten the infrastructure Converge the network Automate virtualization Secure access to resources Integrate the management
17 IBM b-type DCN Enables the DYNAMIC INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVE SERVICE Performance Port Density Power Price Protection Performance : Outstanding Handle exponential data growth with nonoversubscribed architecture Meet SLAs with 10 Gbps today 40 & 100 Gbps ready for tomorrow Simplify All ports are wire-speed and non-blocking Up to four times the performance of competitive offerings
18 IBM b-type DCN Enables the DYNAMIC INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVE SERVICE Performance Port Density Power Price Protection Port Density : Exceptional Flatten network layers efficiently while reducing number of devices Reduce floor space requirements (CapEx) as well as management overhead (OpEx) Connect up to 1,536 devices to a single chassis Support scaled-out virtualized servers with up to GbE ports per chassis
19 IBM b-type DCN Enables the DYNAMIC INFRASTRUCTURE REDUCE COST Performance Port Density Power Price Protection Power : Curtail Up to twice the power efficiency of competitive products Save on power and cooling costs (OpEx) the #2 cost in the Data Center Free up power budget to deploy other assets Green solutions support a Smarter Planet and deployment in power-conscious environments
20 IBM b-type DCN Enables the DYNAMIC INFRASTRUCTURE $ REDUCE COST Performance Port Density Power Price Protection Price : Equitable Reduce training costs Industry Standard CLI no need to learn another language Reduce deployment costs Industry standard protocols & leading features Competitive hardware & service pricing Simplified licensing structures Comprehensive solutions w/lower TCO (CapEx + OpEx) vs. competitive offerings
21 IBM b-type DCN Enables the DYNAMIC INFRASTRUCTURE MANAGE RISK Performance Port Density Power Price Protection Protection : Inclusive Investment Protection 40/100 Gbps ready, FPGA architecture, Network Convergence (FCoE) Device Protection High Availability, redundant design, Hitless software upgrades and failover & Quality Network Protection VSRP, STP, MRP, VRRP-E, MPLS, VPLS, Multi-VRF Embedded sflow for network visibility
