Very, very interesting article from NTAP homepage. Mentions Ancor, Brocade, Converging NAS and SAN, and Infiniband.

E-business Hands Storage Industry a License to Print Money

"Additionally NetApp points to the server industry's attempt to define a new channel-based, switched fabric architecture input/output mechanism through the InfiniBand initiative (a convergence of earlier competing Next Generation I/O and Future I/O specifications) as essential to driving convergence in the storage market because it will enable the same devices to support Unix, NT and other operating system environments. The architecture bypasses the underlying operating system and connects the CPU and memory directly to an I/O engine. In any case it suggests perhaps three years from now something other than TCP/IP may be running across Gigabit Ethernet networks; if anyone comes up with an asynchronous blocking protocol for it that is."
