BROCADE COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS INC in Software-Defined Networking and Network Function Virtualization Solutions

Brocade is coming up with partnerships, collaborations, acquisitions, and product enhancements. The company is focused on increasing product line where it now offers wired and wireless networking for different small- and medium-sized businesses. Increased product line includes integrated wireless products with wired switching portfolio. In order to escalate digital transformation, in December 2016, the company expanded its data center networking solution. This solution would help customers increase network visibility from infrastructure to applications. Along with the extension of the product line, the company formed a partnership with leading network security vendors such as Fortinet Inc, McAfee LLC, Palo Alto Networks Inc, and Raytheon. Cloudpath is an ES security and policy management software which would be integrated with products offered by security vendors. With this partnership, the companies would be able to better serve their mutual customers.
