Storage: Emulex Silicon Will Have iSCSI, TOE, FCoE, RDMA & iWarp in a Single Chip

Compellent — the billion-​​dollar stor­age com­pany? • The Register: “It seems that both Emulex and QLogic are pos­sible sources of this tech­no­logy, QK+Logic iSCSI and FC cards being shipped by Compellent cur­rently. Emulex points out that its Gen 2 con­verged net­work adapter (CNA) card will be half the size of the Gen 1 card and include iSCSI, TCP/​IP off­load, FCoE, 10gigE, RDMA, and iWARP — think host clus­ter­ing — in its single ASIC. The com­pany expects that the equi­val­ent QLogic product will only have FCoE and 10gigE. Emulex can offer, it says, bet­ter use of server and con­trol­ler ports.”

Anyone know if Emulex has made an announce­ment on this ? I’d like to know more.
