IP Storage Technologies and Solutions
Overview The term "IP Storage" is generally used to refer to a Storage Area Networking solution that uses standard Ethernet connectivity in some way. These solutions typically fall into one of two categories: those that use an Ethernet link to interconnect Fibre Channel SAN environments via gateways; and those where a SAN is built using Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure instead of Fibre Channel. Consequently, IP Storage solutions typically extend and complement existing SAN environments, or they provide affordable new SAN storage solutions in parts of the IT infrastructure that are still dominated by direct-attached storage.
