Virtualization Driving Shared Storage More VMs one of the “high impact” factors in storage growth

Source: Gartner x86 Server Forecast CQ3’12

“Client inquiries show that virtual server infrastructures are more latency sensitive

than bandwidth sensitive. This has caused a migration to FC from file-based protocols,

especially when there are a high number of virtual hosts per physical server.” Gartner

Unrelenting Storage Growth Fibre Channel forecasted to remain on top per IDC

FC Storage (PB) predicted to have ~36% CAGR (2012/2016)
