@ AC

What do you expect? Cisco is a proprietary company that sells complexity as sophistication and has the market share and track record to pull this off.

Xsigo is a solution, but not THE solution. Xsigo has may be half a dozen customers in UK and not that many more in USA. Cisco has 80%+ market share with industry leading companies lining up alongside to move to data center Ethernet (DCE).
