The complete practical guide to architect storage networks for maximum efficiency and to
quickly troubleshoot congestion issues. Data is the most important entity in a data center. In
addition to being stored securely for the long term data must be accessible to applications
with low latency so that high performance can be maintained 24 7. To meet this performance goal
of applications the storage infrastructure services must be designed accordingly. In Detecting
Troubleshooting and Preventing Congestion in Storage Networks leading Cisco experts take a
practical approach to explaining the congestion handling mechanisms of the transport
technologies like FC FCoE RoCE and TCP. The authors share proven troubleshooting methodology
developed through years of firsthand experience as well as analytical techniques for monitoring
the storage fabrics and gaining predictive insights. Through real-world experiences and case
study examples you'll learn what questions to ask how to start planning what exists today
what components still must evolve and how to drive value in building custom applications in
detecting congestion in large-scale storage networks. Optimize user experience with faster
resolution of congestion in storage networks in production data centers Master congestion
