Cumulus Networks announced the company has partnered with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) to bring open, highly automated and scalable storage networking solutions to rapidly expanding data centers.
HPE’s StoreFabric M-Series Ethernet Switches will run Cumulus Linux and NetQ, delivering a flexible networking fabric that is predictable, scalable and reliable.
With the continued growth of data and companies taking advantage of new technologies such as AI, 5G and IoT, businesses need more options to handle the new demands being placed on the network. These performance intensive applications require high performance, all-flash storage infrastructure with deeper levels of automation, and they need a networking solution to match, which legacy storage networking solutions simply can’t provide. Together, Cumulus and HPE are providing organisations with the only open, fully automated and high-performance storage networking fabric needed in today’s modern data center.
