The Storage Area Network Goes Global: Combining the Reliability of iSCSI With Full Error Recovery and the Performance of 10 Gigabit Ethernet
Overview As the demand for bandwidth grows, so does the reach of networks. Users need to access data globally, from multiple locations around the world, quickly and transparently without breaking budgets. Data centers locked into servicing only local users unnecessarily constrain growth and expansion. These five factors - cost, bandwidth, reach, latency, and ease-of-access - are the driving metrics behind today's storage area networks (SAN). The Internet Small Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI) was created to extend the reach of storage area networks by enabling SAN functionality over the IP network.
