Brocade Announces Definitive Agreement to Acquire Foundry NetworksI just got an email from Michael Klayko the CEO Brocade
It is my pleasure to share the exciting news that today Brocade entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Foundry Networks, a performance and total solutions leader for enterprise and service provider networking. This combination uniquely positions Brocade to further accelerate the innovation and delivery of high-performance, ultra-reliable networks.
It is evident that the networks of today – from the Internet to corporate LANs, to mission-critical data center networks – are undergoing dynamic change and architectural reconsideration. Network traffic and data growth continue to expand at unprecedented levels. You have increased expectations for performance and reliability. And you are asking for more choices and for more integrated solutions.
