Since Brocade merged with McData, the only real contenders for the Enterprise space are Brocade and Cisco.
I believe QLogic has a "director" class unit, but I don't know how it stacks up....for market share, I would say it's negligable.
 
For the Libraries, I'd think Quantum would likely be in the top 3 with STK, and one of IBM or HP.
 
I haven't looked at IBM or HP's offerings for a while. Is IBM not reselling other manufacturer's libraries?

I can’t speak to the SAN Switch vendors….but I do know that familiar vendors for tape libraries are Sun/STK, HP, and IBM.

 

Thank You,

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm curious if you or anyone on the list can provide some guidance into who are the 3 main SAN switch vendors and who are the 3 main tape library vendors in the enterprise market and how big is their cumulative market share respectively.

 

Thanks for any input.
