	Description:		The much anticipated show about Juniper QFabric has finally arrived. Although we had some recording problems, I’ve done the best I can to reduce the impact – apologies in advance for the poor experience. Juniper QFabric is a different approach to building a switched network core – using what I call “expanded backplane” concept to create a One Layer data centre switch fabric that uses a different approach from what we are used to by extending the backplane from a single switch to a multi-switch design. The topics that we looked into are : QFabric – The elevator pitch Where is the switching done ? Where is the routing done ? How does the Fabric scale ? How about the switch interconnect performance ? Where are the performance bottlenecks ? Linear pricing models. Handling FC/FCoE Would like the 10,000 foot view of the clos architecture in the interconnect switch that facilitates any-to-any. Security considerations.
