Featuring a new design SAN, Rackspace multiple links Brocade 8510 administrators set using UltraScale Brocade Inter-Chassis links (ICL) technology , allowing all ports oriented before being connected to high-performance EMC VMAX enterprise storage arrays. Four 16 Gbps Fibre Channel optical cables offer up to 64 Gbps connectivity between each director Brocade 8510.

Performance of each SAN

To receive complete visibility and insight health and performance of each SAN, Rackspace uses technology Brocade Fabric Vision, which allows storage administrators to solve problems before they affect operations. Using "an array glance edge" views characteristic of fabric Vision, personalized health and performance are created that provide all critical information on one screen.

Rackspace now working to deploy other Brocade Fabric Vision features including speed Vision and CLEARLINK diagnoses . Brocade flow Vision is a suite of tools that allows administrators to easily identify the application specific data flows, monitor and analyze the potentially problematic devices before they impact the fabric performance, and proactively validate the tissue to maximize application performance, avoid congestion and optimize resources.
