Faster Ethernet Gets Weird

June 19, 2015 By Stephen 6 Comments

Once upon a time there was Ethernet. Every half decade or so, the industry got together and worked out a faster version.

Although it looks like a simple network Channel, Ethernet is … [Read more...] about Faster Ethernet Gets Weird

Interop NYC and The Great Debate: ISCSI Beats Fibre Channel

October 3, 2011 By Stephen 4 Comments

Update Happily I was able to record both my presentation and The Great Debate with Stu! Although I'm a long-time Fibre Channel user, and certainly not the sort of person who denies the capabilities of that hallowed storage protocol, is it really necessary anymore?

Infographic: Real-World Port Throughput Relative To Thunderbolt (Formerly Light Peak)

February 21, 2011 By Stephen 2 Comments

We may not yet know much about Intel's new Light Peak interconnect technology, but one thing has remained constant: A goal of 10 Gb/s of throughput. Considering that Intel already produces a variety of relatively-inexpensive 10 Gb Ethernet products, it is not a stretch of the imagination that they could apply this technology to Light Peak (even without the light). Note: This … [Read more...] about Infographic: Real-World Port Throughput Relative To Thunderbolt (Formerly Light Peak)
