FCoE (Fibre Channel over Ethernet)

Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) is a technology that allows storage area network (SAN) traffic, which typically uses Fibre Channel, to be transmitted over standard Ethernet networks. This integration helps simplify data centers by reducing the number of cables and switches needed, combining storage and networking traffic on a single infrastructure. FCoE maintains the performance and reliability of Fibre Channel while taking advantage of the cost-effectiveness and flexibility of Ethernet. This makes it easier for organizations to manage their data storage and networking resources efficiently.
