SAN Over SDH/SONET for Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery

Overview Tremendous growth in enterprise storage needs has created demand for reliable and cost-effective backup and data protection solutions. The emergence of storage extension solutions is a natural evolution of the growing use of Storage Area Networks (SANs) within the enterprise. These solutions provide data connectivity between separate SAN islands within the enterprise using the Wide Area Network (WAN). Large amounts of data pass between SAN islands, and a variety of storage protocols such as Fiber Channel (FC), ESCON, FICON and GbE are often used to facilitate the data transfer. This white paper describes the business case for using SDH/SONET as the WAN between SAN islands.
