Brocade VCS Technology

Brocade VCS Technology

Innovative Brocade VCS™ technology helps organizations flatten their networks to reduce both complexity and cost. This unique technology brings the first Ethernet fabric architectures to the data center, enabling cloud-optimized networking and a wide range of business advantages.

Ethernet Fabric

Ethernet Fabric

Compared to classic hierarchical Ethernet architectures, Ethernet fabrics provide higher levels of performance, utilization, availability, and operational simplicity to meet the business needs of virtualized data centers today and into the future.

Ethernet

IP/Ethernet

Brocade has made significant investments in developing and enhancing the technologies that address the needs and requirements of today and tomorrow's Ethernet network infrastructures.

Since its inception, Brocade has been a driving force behind open industry standards for data center networking technologies.

Software-Defined Networking

Software-Defined Networking

Traditional networks and data centers are being stretched to their limits. They were never designed for today's astronomical growth in bandwidth-intensive applications–and the growing demand for speed, scalability, and resilience. Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a powerful new network paradigm designed to address these issues. Brocade leads the way in SDN technologies to help unleash the power, intelligence, and analytics of networks with a flexible, end-to-end cloud-based solution.
