Fibre Channel and FCoE question?

Hi, i have been studying the Nexus OS the past week or so, i come from a heavy IOS and ASA background so for the most part it has been pretty straightforward so far. Things like VDC's and the general management of the devices are pretty straight forward to, I picked up VDC's fairly easily having worked with ASA multi-contexts for a while now. Other areas like fabricpath seem like a good idea and pretty straight forward to depending what your knowledge of IS-IS is as well as VPC's.

Now for fibre channel i remember studying this about 2 years ago but for the most part it has all left my brain even if i took notes on it (haven't reread them properly yet). But i wanted to ask, what is the more popular way of doing things as far as storage etc.. goes here with Fibre Channel and FCoE? FCoE seems like the simplified way of doing things (granted i have touched on that yet so i could be wrong there) and Fibre Channel on Nexus (or just in general) seems like a far more complex way.

Which technology is more used these days or is there something else on the horizon that will take over both?
