Emulex Showcases Glimpse into the Next Generation Data Center with Fibre Channel over Ethernet and 8Gb/s Virtual HBA Technology Demonstration at Interop Las Vegas
Company to Address Storage and Networking in a Virtual World During Panel Session
WHAT:
Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX) is demonstrating the power of its new Fibre Channel over Ethernet-based (FCoE) converged network adapters (CNAs) running in a virtual server environment at Interop Las Vegas, held at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center. This demonstration leverages Emulex Virtual HBA Technology to showcase how virtual machine migration can take advantage of next generation network speeds and protocols.
