Omega Healthcare accelerates Application Performance with a Brocade Network
Brocade has announced that Omega Healthcare has standardized on an enterprise-wide Ethernet switching infrastructure from Brocade at its facilities in India to improve application and network performance. These issues that Omega experienced with its legacy networking infrastructure had been causing frustration among the staff and adversely impacted employee satisfaction, leading to high attrition.
After an exhaustive evaluation process, Omega selected the Brocade BigIron RX for their network core and the Brocade FastIron Series switches to extend Power over Ethernet (PoE) at their network edge. This resulted in significantly faster application response times and screen refresh rates on the thousands of networked devices that access Omega’s campus-wide LAN.
"We were looking for a networking vendor whose core strength was in high-performance switching," said Kamalraj Chandrasekharan, Associate Vice-President - Technology, Omega Healthcare, India. "Brocade has a rich heritage of building high-performance solutions and its innovation track record in this arena was what we were looking for in building out our new enterprise network."
"Brocade is committed to providing high-quality switching solutions designed to improve network utilization, maximize application availability, increase scalability, and dramatically simplify network architecture," said Rajesh Kaul, Regional Director for Brocade India. "Our partner, Orva Networks Pvt. Ltd., worked with Omega Healthcare to design the solution on Brocade technology and we are delighted with returns the customer received," Kaul added.
