ST. LOUIS, MO — (MARKET WIRE) — 05/01/07 — Blade.org founding member, Teak Technologies, previewed its pioneering 10-Gb Congestion-Free Ethernet switching solution, the I3000, for the IBM BladeCenter platform at the IBM PartnerWorld 2007 event here today.

Targeted at the innovative IT manager who is already considering the merit of data center simplification through adoption of 10-GbE in the BladeCenter, the I3000 offers a compelling alternative that combines best-in-class low latency switching with up to 16x price/performance advantage over comparable 10-GbE solutions.

The I3000 is the first in a series of a new category of scalable Congestion-Free Ethernet switching solutions for the New Data Center. These solutions solve the core problem of network congestion spread associated with state-of-art Ethernet switches used in short-haul data center networks.

Spoke with one of the guys from Teak Technologies at the bladesystemsinsight conference, their Ethernet solution does look very smart, I need to read up more on it, in the meantime do check out the article, and their site, it looks like an interesting proposition.
