FCoE技术在电力数据中心的应用

Application of FCoE technology in electric power data center

FCoE技术是以整合I/O为目的产生的技术。它能将现有数据中心的以太网和存储网络整合在一起,提供统一的数据传输和管理。要实现FCoE技术需要融合型网络适配器(CNA)来代替以太网卡和HBA卡,同时需要万兆以太网技术和以太网增强及数据中心桥接技术的支撑。FCoE技术能减少数据中心的部署和管理成本,减少设备功耗,提供更好更灵活的性能,还能保护用户现有的投资,是未来数据中心发展的方向之一。

FCoE technology was invented to the purpose of integrating the I/O. It could integrate Ethernet with storage network in the existing data center, and provide a unified data transmission and management. To realize the FCoE technology, we need converged net- work adapters （CAN） to replace Ethernet card and HBA card, and need the G- Ethernet, Ethernet enhancement technique and data center bridge technology to be supporting. FCoE technology would reduce the deployment and management costs of data center, and re- duce the power consumption. FCoE technology would not only provide more flexible and better performance, also protect user existing investments. It was one of developing direction of the data center in future.
