Dynamic Infrastructure - Data Center Networking - Introduction
What Are The Key Messages?
There are three distinct elements to Data Center Networking, which is essential to dynamic infrastructures (such as cloud computing)
– Leading-edge, high performance hardware• Ethernet equipment now available through STG
– Expertise to design and implement dynamic networks• IGS Integrated Communications Services plus Business Partners
– Software to manage dynamic networks• IBM System Director and IBM Tivoli Network Manager (ITNM)
IBM is committed to provide open, industry standards-based solutions
IBM provides clients choices, with worldwide IBM service and support

Dynamic Infrastructure - Data Center Networking - Introduction
Different Kinds of NetworkingIn a Dynamic Infrastructure, We’re Really Concerned About Three
Small Computer System Interface (SCSI)– Now at least 30 years old, command set still used, cabling not used
Ethernet - most successful protocol for physical transport layer– Developed in mid-70’s; winning alternative to IBM Token Ring– Packets sent are not guaranteed to reach destination
Fibre Channel – developed as high-speed data-only alternative to Ethernet– Supports larger packets and guaranteed packet delivery
Fibre Chanel over Ethernet (FCoE) – new emerging standard– Enhancements to Ethernet to guarantee packet delivery and allow QoS profiling– Expected to replace Fibre Channel in coming years
InfiBand – Used in High Performance Computing (HPC) clusters– Never embraced for device-to-server connectivity
Serial Attach Storage (SAS)– “Recent” replacement for SCSI, inexpensive way to connect storage to servers
– Primarily used within systems or as low-cost interconnect

Dynamic Infrastructure - Data Center Networking - Introduction
Networking for a Dynamic Infrastructure Networking is essential to dynamic infrastructures
– As organizations drive to transform their infrastructures to reduce costs, improve service and manage risk, networking is an element that is pivotal to success
– While organizations continue to focus on server and storage hardware optimization, technology enhancements, service management improvement, security, resiliency and integration projects between IT and extended business assets, optimizing the network (hardware, software, management) to support these initiatives is essential to ensuring the maximum benefit
In highly virtualized infrastructures (example: clouds), new demands are placed on networking which can become a limiting factor– More stringent network performance and availability requirements to enable fast reliable
access to virtualized resources
– Flexible and adaptable networks for application workload mobility
– Response to variable capacity requirements
– Robust security to support multi-tenancy
A more instrumented, interconnected, and intelligent world increases the importance of the network in linking those devices to businesses to drive real time intelligence

Dynamic Infrastructure - Data Center Networking - Introduction
To support these networking requirements, clients will need:
– Networking technology solutions that enable investment protection with a range of performance and cost options that match the client’s environment
– Expertise to plan and design networks with holistic consideration of servers, storage, application performance and manageability
– Technology and expertise to design and implement network security and resiliency
– Robust network management software to provideintegrated, simplified management that lowersoperating costs of complex networks
