Foundry Networks 被收购了
July 21, 2008
Dear Valued Customer,
It is my pleasure to share the exciting news that today Foundry entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Brocade, the leader in data center networking solutions that help enterprises connect and manage their information. This combination uniquely positions our two organizations 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.
Very few companies can proactively address these changes, from the LAN to the SAN, from the Internet to the Data Center. Following the closing of the acquisition, Brocade will be in a unique position to address the evolution of your next-generation networks with products of the highest performance and reliability, and the most advanced technology for the future.
We look forward to providing you with more comprehensive, end-to-end solutions to help you meet the challenges you face in building a network that addresses the complex and interconnected demands of the converged network. I encourage you to engage with your local Foundry representative to discuss your specific requirements, to ask additional questions, or to provide feedback. Best regards,
Woody Akin
SVP, Worldwide Sales
