Why I Am Biased Against FCoE

October 21, 2011 By Stephen 14 Comments

I stirred up a lot of controversy last week after posting what I thought was a fairly innocuous question: Will 16 Gb Fibre Channel Derail FCoE? That short post focused on the prospects for 16 Gb FC and was the result of questions I received from the audience at Interop New York. Yet the resulting controversy is all about the fitness of FCoE and my personal motivations. So I … [Read more...] about Why I Am Biased Against FCoE

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?

May 20, 2011 By Stephen 18 Comments

My presentation at Interop in Las Vegas on May 11, 2011, focused on the protocols that will underpin converged storage networking in the future. My topic, assigned by network computing editor Mike Fratto, was “FCoE vs. iSCSI - Making the Choice.” Although this sounds like a grand competition between the two protocols, my take on the subject is very far from that idea. Rather … [Read more...] about FCoE vs. iSCSI – Making the Choice

My “On the Road” Video Recording Kit

May 16, 2011 By Stephen 3 Comments

I've been traveling a lot lately, attending Symantec Vision, the IBM Storage Executive Summit, Interop, and EMC World just in the last two weeks! One of the things that I love about attending shows like this, in addition to meeting so many great people, is recording and sharing videos of the experience. Some of my friends asked about the equipment I use for mobile video … [Read more...] about My “On the Road” Video Recording Kit
