Extreme Networks announced that its Summit® X450a family of switches have been tested and are now available for sale with Dell EqualLogic SANs.
Extreme Networks Ethernet networking solutions, in concert with Dells’ EqualLogic iSCSI solution, provide a high performance, cost effective storage solution to meet the requirements of today’s demanding data center customers.
Extreme Networks Summit X450a switches provide data center customers with a switching solution that combines lower operating cost along with easier deployment and management.
“Customers are converging storage onto Ethernet technology to drive lower costs, boost simplicity and performance,” said Aziz Ala’ali, Regional Director for Extreme Networks, Middle East & Africa.
“By testing our products with Dell to ensure compatibility, we are able to bring to our customers a high performance, easy to manage and operate solution at very compelling price points compared to traditional SAN solutions.”
“iSCSI is the established Ethernet based converged SAN technology. The primary market drivers are the ability of current generation iSCSI products to meet the needs of data center customers from a performance, cost and management standpoint by leveraging standard Ethernet network infrastructure,” said Steven J. Schuchart Jr., Principal Analyst for Data Center at Current Analysis. “The offering from Dell and Extreme Networks creates a compelling solution in the converged all Ethernet storage marketplace.”
