Sponsored by Computerworld and the Storage Networking Industry Association, SNW is held twice each year. Conference ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 30, 2000 Best-of-Breed Vendors and Interoperability Lab Demo To Be Highlighted at the Storage Networking World Conference 2000 ONI ONI abbr. Office of Naval Intelligence Noun 1. ONI - the military intelligence agency that provides for the intelligence and counterintelligence and investigative and security requirements of the United States Navy Systems(TM)Corp. (Nasdaq:ONIS), a provider of all-optical telecommunications equipment, and Brocade Communications Systems Brocade, Inc. NASDAQ: BRCD, based in Silicon Valley, designs, manufactures, and sells storage networking solutions and management applications for storage area networks (SANs) and file area networks (FANs). , Inc. (Nasdaq:BRCD), Hitachi, Ltd. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange : HIT), StorageNetworks, Inc. (Nasdaq:STOR), Sun Microsystems Sun Microsystems, Inc.

(Nasdaq:SUNW SUNW Sun Microsystems, Inc (former stock symbol; now JAVA) SUNW Stanford University Network Workstation (Sun Microsystems, Inc) ), and other Fortune 100 equipment vendors will together demonstrate a complete storage area network (SAN) solution over an all-optical metro network. The demonstration, with a Storage Service Provider (SSP (1) (Service Switching Point) The local exchange node in an SS7 telephone network. The SSP can be part of the voice switch or in a separate computer connected to it. ) theme, will show live e-business applications, such as Exchange, order entry, and video streaming See streaming video and video stream. , offering fail-safe data delivery across the metro area This article is about the music production team.

The companies and their products can be seen at the Storage Networking World Conference on October 31, 2000 thru November 1, 2000 in Orlando, Florida. The SSP solution is designed to reflect real-world configurations, such as those found in StorageNetworks(SM) Storage Point-of-Presence(SM) (StoragePOP(SM) or S-POP(SM)) data centers. This demonstration will include simulated customer sites and StoragePOP data centers interconnected by ONI's ONLINE(TM) all-optical transport platform, and OPTX(TM) operating system for wavelength and service management. ONI's solution gives service providers highly scalable bandwidth and low latency connections, allowing service providers to transport native storage protocols between S-POP data centers. It also ensures reliable networks connections for mission critical data by fully protecting the optical path. "With this SAN interoperability demo, ONI and other best-of-breed vendors are cooperating to meet the demands of the high-growth storage market. The flexibility of our ONLINE transport platform and easy, point-and-click OPTX operating system enables seamless connections to other equipment. And like our Operation: Interoptical(TM) programs at SUPERCOMM and NFOEC NFOEC National Fiber Optical Engineer Conference NFOEC National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference 2000, conducted with many of these same partners, the end result is seamless end-to-end service delivery," said Bob Jandro, executive vice president of Global Sales and Services at ONI Systems. The ONI solution offers the flexibility to support all network topologies (point-to-point, ring and mesh), any client-side traffic stream from 100 megabit per second A megabit per second (abbreviated as Mbit/s, Mbps, or mbps) is a unit of data transfer rate equal to 1,000,000 bits per second. Because there are 8 bits in a byte, a transfer speed of 8 megabits per second (8 Mbps) is equivalent to 1,000,000 bytes to 2.5 gigabits per second (such as ATM, Fibre Channel, GbE, IP and SONET) and 10 gigabits per second. The ONLINE platform provides superior performance with a small physical footprint, and is the only platform that supports both dedicated optical protection (O-BLSR) and shared optical protection (O-UPSR), allowing users to choose the protection option which best suits their needs. The flexibility of the platform is harnessed through the OPTX operating system, which gives users the power to dynamically manage and control the network from a single platform.
