Rack servers Blade servers
W E Up to 75% of traffic Up to 50% of ports interconnect switches; not servers or storage Unnecessary layers add hops and latency Slows performance of federated apps & VM mobility N S
Multi-tier Legacy Architecture
Federated Applications and Virtualization changing traffic flows
6 Advanced architecture that improves server-to-server performance
How HP FlexFabric is changing the rules
Access Switches with IRF, Virtual Connect
Higher performing, scale and switch/network reliability Requires fewer layers and platforms—simplified lower cost design IRF enables a single low latency hop between servers (for L2 and L3)
IRF = Intelligent Resilient Framework technology
