Brocade CEO Michael Klayko said they are pleased with their Q4 performance which drove record revenues, growth in their Ethernet business and a strong finish to fiscal 2010.
"Looking forward to FY11, we are particularly excited about Brocade’s successful launch of the industry’s first Ethernet fabric products and technologies, which we believe will serve as a catalyst for customers to rapidly migrate to virtualised data centres and cloud-optimised networks," Klayko said.
