I don't have specifics on which companies are using Brocade vs. Ancor, but I do know that StorageTek is reselling the Brocade switch.

There will be more details forthcoming at COMDEX in November, regarding the Brocade market share.

I work in this biz, and right now I say I would buy a Brocade switch if I was to buy. Brocade seems to have a stronger marketing presence and the market share speaks for itself.

This technology is still very immature. Most companies, including my own are not rolling SANs into production, but just testing the waters right now.

We are a few years off from large scale sales, but a buyout could happen before then.... I am calmly waiting for Brocade to go public.
