- editor mentions on STORAGEsearch.com
- editor's notes:- Brocade's own company profile doesn't tell you what
they do. They're in the SAN
switch business. And have been for over a decade as this
1998
archived copy their home page demonstrates.
Since those early days
ethernet based storage networks
and IP SANs have become a
much bigger market than fibre
channel SANs - but
Brocade is involved in both.
Fibre channel switches & hubs, which
are now taken for granted, were once hot topics as many more companies once
fought to control this market. In the
summer
of 2000 SAN switches were the
#1 most popular subject
viewed by our readers. Many of those early SAN switch pioneers were
eventually acquired by
their competitors.
Today in
2008 - this
topic doesn't get into the
top 20 subjects
viewed by our readers. It's not that the SAN switch market hasn't grown - just
that many other markets have grown much bigger and
faster.
