Fountainhead: Emergence of Fabric as an IT Management Enabler

Fountainhead

Virtualizing I/O and converging the transport. Transport can be Ethernet, FCoE, Infiniband, or others. The next step is to define in software the converged network, its switching, and even network devices such as load balancers. Provisioning of the network, VLANs, IP load balancing, etc.

Fountainhead: Converged Infrastructure Part 2.

Fountainhead

And I mean I/O components like NICs and HBAs, not to mention switches, load balancers and cables. Consolidating I/O also implies converged transport, meaning fewer cables (typically only 1 per server, 2 if teamed/redundant). And a converged transport also allows for fewer switches needed on the network.
