Gigabits
Now and
in the Future
By David Morgenstern
As
throughput rates swoop up a steepening curve, some users
are still having a hard time buying the notion that gigabit
speeds are on the cusp of becoming a consumer standard.
Get used to it: It's already time to start counting down
to 10-gigabit-per-second performance on entry-level computers…Most
of the storage industry's expectations for next-generation
speed has focused on either 4-Gbps or recently 10-Gbps
flavors of Fibre Channel. "An incremental gain [in
performance] may not be worth the effort, but a gain of
an order of magnitude can always be justified," said
Michael Bennett, senior network engineer at Lawrence
Berkeley National Laboratory. He used 10GbE to interconnect
two large clusters of servers. Full
