- For IBM and Emulex customers, you’ll find everything you need here to research, study, test, buy and deploy the IBM Virtual Fabric solution with the Emulex Virtual Fabric Adapter (VFA) and IBM System x and BladeCenter server families.
- For IBM sellers, we’ll let you dig even deeper into certifications and promotions that make this industry-leading I/O solution easier to understand and more profitable to sell.
Virtual Fabric Breaks the I/O Bottleneck
Next-generation servers like those in the IBM BladeCenter and IBM System x families deliver outstanding performance in virtualized environments, but traditional 1Gb Ethernet I/O becomes more complex and often becomes a bottleneck.
Creating a competitive advantage with IBM’s Virtual Fabric solution:
- Create up to 8 Virtual NICs on 2 physical ports, ideal for virtualization implementations
- Significantly decrease the CAPEX expenditure to deploy today's I/O solutions
- Significantly decrease the OPEX expenditure to deploy IBM Virtual Fabric by collapsing complexity in the data center
- Increase Virtual Machine density by providing full FCoE and iSCSI offload in a converged environment
The Virtual Fabric solution for IBM delivers these benefits and much more to optimize virtualized environments and provide value to non-virtualized solutions for today's data center. Welcome to the Virtual Fabric Academy!
