Abstract
PCI Express Gen2 and Gen3, IO Virtualization, FCoE, SSD are here or coming soon. This session describes PCI Express, Single Root and Multi Root IO Virtualization and the implications on FCoE, SSD and impacts of all these changes on storage connectivity, storage transfer rates. The potential implications to Storage Industry and Data Center Infrastructures will also be discussed.
Learning Objectives:
Knowledge of PCI Express Architecture, PCI Express Roadmap, System Root Complexes and IO Virtualization
Expected Industry Roll Out of latest IO Technologies and required Root Complex capabilities
Implications and Impacts of FCoE, SSD and IO to Storage Connectivity
IO Virtualization connectivity possibilities in the Data Center (via PCI Express)
What does the 2020 Data Center look like?
