Juniper Adds AV, Scalability Enhancements To Virtual Security Gateway
August 29, 2011 08:04 AM
Juniper Networks has added antivirus scanning to its security gateway for VMware environments, adding to its existing stateful firewall, IDS and compliance capabilities. The vGW Virtual Gateway, which was announced earlier this year, builds on the acquisition of virtualization security vendor Altor Networks in December 2010.Brocade Flexes Fabric Muscle At Technology Day Summit
May 05, 2011 07:09 AM
Last June, the industry embraced the introduction of the Brocade One architecture, VCS technology and VDX switches--which for the first time brought to life a new fabric network design for flatter scale-out in virtualized clouds. At its Technology Day Summit in San Jose, Brocade presented its vision for the fabric industry, unveiled its next-generation fabric architecture called CloudPlex and announced the availability of several new products.Force 10 Lays Out Standards-Based Next Generation Networking Vision
April 27, 2011 08:00 AM
Force 10 is the latest networking vendor to announce a comprehensive vision for data center networking. Dubbed Open Cloud Networking, the idea is to use standard protocols to interconnect networking gear paired with their Open Automation capabilities, and offer integration and interoperation with network management and systems orchestration management servers. The company's announcement includes additional automation features and new hardware to support the vision. Force 10 is not the first to the table, nor is its vision as grand as Cisco's or Juniper's, but the focus on standards support should resonate with companies that rely on multiple vendors.Throwing Bandwidth At Your Network Problems Isn't Enough
March 18, 2011 10:04 AM
The data center is undergoing an unprecedented change, with new demands, vendors, technologies and architectures. In a three-part series, Network Computing takes a closer look at what's happening in the data center, starting with networking, and followed by servers and architectures.When MLAG Is Good Enough
March 07, 2011 07:00 AM
Do you need multi-path Ethernet in the data center using TRILL, Shortest Path Bridging (SPB), Cisco's FabricPath or Brocade's VCS in order to maximize network efficiency and reduce congestion? Probably not, unless you manage a very big data center with servers and access ports running into the tens of thousands. If you have less than 5,000 access ports in your data center, you can probably avoid routing Ethernet frames and use your vendor's multi-chassis link aggregation (MLAG) product-set to interconnect the access in an active/active design. MLAG worksJuniper Gets To '1' With New QFabric Family
February 24, 2011 03:59 PM
Juniper finally got to 1 in its 3-2-1 strategy launched last year. The trend, to flatten the network, has been coming for a while. What's held back the flattening are little things, like being able to aggregate enough access ports over a high capacity and low latency interconnects, broadcast control, traffic management and, frankly, a strong driver to re-architect the network. But that hasn't stopped Brocade, Cisco and Juniper from coming out with some innovative data center network offerings. Of the three, Juniper's seems to require less of a commitment by IT, which I think will help the company open doors.Juniper Introduces New Architecture For Data Center Networking
February 24, 2011 02:34 PM
Juniper Networks is introducing a totally new design for data center networking that it calls QFabric, which collapses the typical three layers of networking equipment into one for faster performance, lower latency, better scalability, reduced power consumption and lower cost. The company will begin selling the QFabric Node switch this quarter at a list price of $34,000, the first of three products that together deliver the new QFabric architecture.IT Is Becoming All About The API
February 02, 2011 07:00 AM
During a visit to Sillicon Valley a few weeks back, I had the opportunity to stop in on Cisco, HP and Juniper and get demos of products that I have been briefed on and written about but haven't seen in action. These products include Cisco's Unified Computing System (UCS), Juniper's JunOS Space and HP's Intelligent Management Center. What struck me most about all three products is how much emphasis the vendors are putting on developing APIs, both for internal use and third-party integration. APIs, and, by extension, integrated products are going to become much more important in your buying decisions.Altor Strengthens Juniper's Virtualization Security
December 07, 2010 02:21 PM
Juniper Networks' decision to increase its stake in virtualization security specialist Altor Networks to 100 percent was a fairly obvious move, says analyst Zeus Kerravala of the Yankee Group. "Juniper has been trying to strengthen their enterprise portfolio, trying to become a more relevant vendor. This seems to fit in where Juniper is already strong and gives them a stronger presence," Kerravala says.Everyone Wants To Be The IBM Of Old
September 01, 2010 03:00 PM
As the 3PAR bidding war comes to a close, it seems time to examine the larger trend amongst IT manufacturers to go back to the future and recreate Thomas Watson's IBM or Ken Olsen's Digital Equipment Corporation, providing soup-to-nuts IT equipment and services. While some other members of the IT chattering class have been concentrating on the integration of vertical stacks of storage, compute and networking, I see an even bigger trend including a broader set of hardware, software and services.« Previous Page | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | Next Page »
