Businesses
have made significant investments in their fibre-channel
based storage area networks. The challenge is to
leverage the existing FC SAN so that these investments
in capital equipment, staff, and infrastructure
deliver increasing value to the business. To
fully realize these benefits the costs associated with
connecting more servers to the FC SAN must be greatly
reduced allowing the expansion of FC SANs in a cost
effective manner that adds to the overall return on
investment while decreasing the total cost of
ownership.
|
|
|
iSCSI
is the technology that allows IT organizations to
accomplish those goals while leveraging existing
investments and expertise.

SANRAD
iSCSI
solutions
bridge and provision Fibre Channel storage resources
to IP-connected servers replacing the need for
additional FC HBAs and FC switches with standard
Ethernet components. SANRAD
solutions cut
the cost of adding new servers by 90% letting you
extend existing FC-SANs at a fraction of the cost.

-
Open-iSCSI
Fabric -
Standardized
connectivity across Ethernet environments, linking
servers with any storage system for flexible and
cost-effective creation of SANs using
heterogeneous storage infrastructures including
FC, SCSI, iSCSI, SATA and FC fabric.
-
Fault
Tolerance -
Replication,
Snapshots and migration of data across multiple
storage systems, prevent data loss and
automatically route users to available storage
resources. Removable Compact Flash mirrors the
configuration database for fast recovery.
- Storage
Security -
Access
Control Lists, iSCSI login authentication, VPN
support and data encryption for access control and
remote data security.

Reduces
TCO -
Cost-effective IP SAN extensions provide significant
savings over additional Fibre Channel infrastructure by
eliminating host and capacity based licensing, use of
existing LAN technology, and simple open scalability.

| Increases
ROI -
Through
more efficient storage usage, improved administrative
productivity, and reduced network complexity,
Fibre Channel Extension achieves
a fast return on investment. |
