Polaris implements Brocade to revamp its Campus and Data Center Network
Polaris has upgraded its campus and data center network with new switching infrastructure from Brocade. The solution will support increased developer productivity with improved performance, greater security while delivering a 30 percent lower total cost-of-ownership.
"We work in an environment which is highly critical, real-time and runs 24X7X365, this makes our network even more vital and spurred the need for a revamp of our campus and data center networks. The solution proposed by Brocade answered our need for increased performance and security while offering greater scalability, flexibility and a 30 percent better total cost-of-ownership compared to the present system," said Shashi Mohan, CIO & CTO, Polaris.
Brocade FastIron SX Series switches have been deployed to form a scalable, secure, low latency, and fault-tolerant 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) IP core. Within the Polaris data center FastIron SX 800s have been deployed to handle physical and virtual server access while Brocade's FCX Series and FWS Series switches connect workstation and IP phones. The FCX Series supports 10GbE uplinks to the core network and up to 48 GbE Power-over-Ethernet access ports per switch while the FWS Series provide 1GbE uplinks and 48 GbE Power-over-Ethernet access ports per switch.
"Companies across the globe recognize the critical need for a more dynamic, reliable and scalable network infrastructure for their on-going success. Brocade's commitment to unmatched simplicity, drives OpEx savings and non-stop networking in order to meet such stringent service level agreements," said Rajesh Kaul, Director, Brocade India.
