RE: Can FCoE replace iSCSI?
Random_Walk 1st Aug 2010
So far, we've been using 10gE lines quite nicely. It does cost a bit, and it does mean that your network admin will have a bit of brushing-up to do, but it has been extremely nice as a means of getting huge bandwidth and performance from server to SAN.

Funny thing is, we don't simply toss it everywhere - only the Oracle and VM servers get that kind of end-to-end love. Everyone else can use it as a backbone if needed, but otherwise it's only the bandwidth hogs that get that kind of access.

(and, err, we actually use iSCSI over those 10gE lines. happy )
