Business Wire
Voltaire Ltd. (NASDAQ: VOLT), a leading provider of scale-out
data center fabrics, today announced that it will demonstrate the
industry’s first end-to-end, virtualized, scale-out data center
across a multi-vendor 10 Gigabit Ethernet fabric at Interop, April
27-29, 2010 in Las Vegas in booth 643.
In the demonstration, Voltaire’s recently introduced Unified
Fabric Manager™ (UFM™) 3.0 software orchestrates physical and
virtual switches delivering guaranteed levels of service per
application. The demonstration will include 10 GbE networking
products from Voltaire, BLADE Network Technologies, HP ProCurve,
Intel and Emulex, and virtualization software from VMware. Voltaire
UFM™ 3.0 software is the first and only Ethernet fabric management
software that dynamically orchestrates end-to-end virtual machine
connectivity for multi-vendor, scale-out data center networks.
“The dynamic and shared nature of today’s virtualized data
center and cloud computing environments is creating new challenges
in maintaining security and service levels,” said Asaf Somekh, vice
president of marketing, Voltaire. “Resolving these challenges
requires a new kind of fabric orchestration solution that
translates service or application requirements to data center
fabric policies in real-time. Voltaire’s UFM software for Ethernet
essentially functions as the data center fabric operating system
and automatically configures fabric resources as services are added
or mobilized across the data center.”
The demonstration includes the Voltaire Vantage™ 8500, a low
latency 10 GbE Layer 2 core switch, which provides CEE capabilities
such as lossless traffic, as well as the BLADE RackSwitch G8124, HP
ProCurve 6600-24XG switch, Intel® Ethernet Server Adapter X520-DA2,
Emulex OneConnect Universal Converged Network Adapters (UCNAs), and
VMware ESX 4.0. The converged fabric also tunnels storage traffic
over 10GbE with virtualized connectivity to Fibre Channel
storage.
“BLADE Network Technologies’ RackSwitch is the ideal top-of-rack
switch for an end-to-end 10 Gigabit Ethernet network,” said Tim
Shaughnessy, vice president of Marketing, BLADE Network
Technologies. “Customers can now manage BLADE’s RackSwitch using
Voltaire’s Unified Fabric Manager in an open, multi-vendor network
environment that provides advantages including improved visibility,
better end-to-end performance, exceptional scalability, converged
storage and data traffic, virtual resource mobility and higher
utilization. Voltaire’s Interop demo provides a state-of-the-art
representation of BLADE Network Technologies’ vision of the unified
fabric of the future.”
“Emulex is committed to building partnerships across the
ecosystem that help customers make the transition to
high-performance, high-density 10Gb/s Ethernet networks,” said
Steve Daheb, chief marketing officer and senior vice president of
business development, Emulex. “Collaborating with partners such as
Voltaire ensures customers have the solutions they need to not only
make the transition, but make the transition a seamless one,
enabling them to realize the benefits of network consolidation and
convergence.”
