Description:

Take a Network Break and dive into our tasty selection of tech news, including Brocade’s purchase of Ruckus Wireless, Cisco’s latest milestone with its Nexus 3000 line, and our debate on whether Apple should build its own cloud.

Mirantis scores a win for commercial OpenStack by landing VW as a customer, startup ContainerX targets the enterprise with its container management software, and Verizon bids to buy Yahoo.

Last but not least, we circle back to Cisco to get more details about the FD.io open source project, which is building a virtual switch/router based on Cisco’s Vector Packet Processing software.
