“One of the most important factors in our business is to be able to react immediately to our customers' unique networking requirements and deliver business agility to help them maximize their IT resources. Brocade Network Subscription perfectly aligns to our business model as it provides compute, storage and networking capabilities on a metered basis, as we need it, very much in the same way as our customers utilize our own services. The pay-as-you go model reduces our capital outlay so we can invest in other growth areas of our business.”
