Ethernet: The High Bandwidth Low-Latency Data Center Switching Fabric

The transition to 10 GbE is under way in the data center, and the ubiquity and reliability of Ethernet make it a desirable solution for delivering a high performance data center network, storage and compute fabric. Ethernet technology has reached a maturity and is a compelling proposition. The mass-market availability of 10 GbE adapters and switches enables Ethernet based networks to deliver high bandwidth, high throughput and low latency solutions for the rigorous demands of data center applications.
