Doesn't connecting servers pretty much imply using switches? In the first quarter of 1998, Compaq will offer the ProLiant Cluster Series F servers, which use Fibre channel technology for connecting servers together. Fibre channel is a high-speed data transfer technology that Compaq will also use in new storage products as a way to transfer data between large clusters of hard drives and the server. In the Series F servers, the technology will be used to create a quick-response, intelligent backup system in case one of the servers, or one of its components, fails. Users, as a result, suffer far fewer network outages. news.com
