Session 4.3 Fibre Channel’s Momentum Eric Sheppard, Research Analyst, Storage Systems, IDC With momentum on its side, Fibre Channel components are expected to account for the vast majority of Storage Area Network (SAN) interconnects through 2004. Mr. Sheppard will size the Fibre Channel components market, rank the vendors playing in this space and forecast the market through 2004Coverage will include Hubs, Directors, Loop and Fabric Switches and HBAs. Metrics will include both revenue and ports. Anyone going to be at the IDC conference? Anyone who can get this new data ASAP? Thanks in advance. I think we are seeing signs of the shift to director switches over smaller count switches. When do we get more branded directors, ie OEMs? Any help out there?
