SAN protocols and Uber Networks

Chuck Hollis and Stephen Foskett have both blogged recently about storage protocols. I've certainly done my fair share of it too in the past. I'm not convinced people want a single network for all traffic - even if that's what they think they want today. Here's a one-handed vid of me rambling about it.

If you mean that organizations will want to physically separate block storage traffic from application traffic, I agree. Separation makes a lot of sense from many perspectives. However, I do believe the organizations want and need a single type of network infrastructure because of the management and cost benefits.

Yes, that's what I mean Nik. Same technology, different implementations for different purposes.
