- Description
- Brand Name Justification Synopsis FLENUMMETOCCEN supports significant requirements for global-scale, longer range METOC predictions in concert with a broad range of Department of Defense organizations. The Command has made substantial investments in the existing infrastructure, and maintaining operational availability is critical. Substantial technical research and system testing has been conducted and it has been determined that Brocade is the only known manufacturer of information technology components with the newest technology, that has the ability to integrate seamlessly with the current FLENUMMETOCCEN HPC suite, thereby meeting the Command ™s unique requirements. FLENUMMETOCCEN ™s supercomputers are at the heart of its mission critical operational capability. FLENUMMETOCCEN ™s supercomputer suite (A2-0 and A2-1) reflects an investment of several million dollars. This acquisition is part of a fibrechannel network upgrade. Procurement of the proposed brand name components is consistent with the Command ™s System Integration Master Plan and will enhance FLENUMMETOCCEN ™s information collection and delivery capabilities. Keeping these fibrechannel connections in a similar configuration to the existing system allows FLENUMMETOCCEN to maintain system availability and to leverage the expertise of the people configuring and maintaining this system. It also decreases operational risks.
