FCoE (Fiber Channel over Ethernet): A protocol that allows Fiber Channel communications to run directly over high-speed Ethernet networks, combining the robust and established world of Fiber Channel with the versatility and ubiquity of Ethernet. This provides a unified fabric that carries both storage and network traffic, thus simplifying data center infrastructure and reducing costs.
