More about "Lesson 1: The Storage Area Network:" If you're experiencing a rapid growth in data and you'd like to manage it all in the same place, then you're probably a good candidate for a SAN. Other good reasons for choosing to implement a SAN in your storage environment include more simple management of your data, including the flexibility to manage your storage environment from anywhere at any time. Implementing a SAN lets you backup your data easier since it's all on the same server. What's more, with a SAN you can store your data in a place separate from your server, which could help protect your data in the event of a disaster at your main site. All of these factors combined can help you greatly improve the ROI on your data center. In the first chapter of SAN School, Chris Poelker explains who would benefit from implementing a SAN and why. You'll learn the details about how a SAN works to pool data together, store it in one centralized location and push block-based data across the network. Chapter one will give you a foundation to start planning for your new network and realize the SAN vision: To use multiple applications and systems in one network with many different data centers managed in one place, so your operation can be global in scope, which isn't possible with DAS.
