Welcome to the SAN Info Center — your one-stop resource for information, tools, and professional guidance on Storage Area Networks (SANs). The information in this phase will help you decide if a SAN is the right solution for your business challenges. If so, the subsequent phases will guide you through the process of planning, designing, implementing, managing, and enhancing your SAN.
In the Evaluate Phase of the SAN Info Center, you can:
STEP 1: EXPLORE SAN SOLUTION
Learn how SANs provide a variety of effective business solutions, plus use an online tool to determine which SAN solutions can address your unique storage challenges.
STEP 2: LEARN THE BASICS OF SANS
Read the basic definition of a SAN, and explore an interactive graphic to learn about the different hardware and software components of a SAN.
STEP 3: EXAMINE THE ROI OF SANS
Get the facts about the short-term and long-term return on investment of SANs, including industry figures, analyst reports, and customer case studies.
STEP 4: COMPARE SANS TO ALTERNATE TECHNOLOGIES
See how SANs compare to Direct Attached Storage (DAS) and Network Attached Storage (NAS) approaches.
Each of these steps in the Evaluation phase includes an overview summary on the topic as well as links to additional tools and information that you can browse for more in-depth information.
