Transform Your Business with Quantum-Safe, AI-Powered SAN

What’s inside?

The Brocade® Gen 5 DCX 8510 Director is long past Fabric OS® End-of-Availability and nearing End-of-Support, meaning no security patches, no fixes, and no TAC assistance. Continuing to run this platform exposes your SAN to growing vulnerabilities, hardware aging, and performance bottlenecks.

This guide explains why now is the time to upgrade and how the Lenovo X7 (Gen 7) and X8 (Gen 8) Directors deliver the modern, secure, and resilient foundation your data center needs. Learn:

  • What FOS EOA and EOS mean for risk, reliability, and support
  • How legacy Directors fail to meet the demands of next-gen servers and storage
  • Why Lenovo Gen 7 and Gen 8 Directors provide the safest, fastest upgrade path
  • How quantum-safe security and AI-powered autonomy strengthen your SAN

Discover how refreshing your Director infrastructure delivers stronger protection, higher performance, and long-term stability for mission-critical workloads.
