7 Why Networked Storage?
Moores Law
8 Storage and Network Convergence
Storage Networking
9 Technology Trend Fibre Channel
- Fibre Channel provides new levels of Bandwidth,
Connectivity, and Flexibility - Switches provide non-blocking 100 MB/sec (1
Gbit/sec) per port with any-to-any connectivity - Long-wave ports provide up to 10 km distance
- Future Developments
- Large port-count switches ( 256)
- Fibre Channel has grown to 2 Gbit/sec
- 10 Gbit/sec in 2-3 years
10 SAN Connectivity Evolution
DATA CENTER
FC -SW
11 Conventional IT Organization
Network used for exchange of data
between clients and servers and between servers
themselves.
Difficult to manage, wasted resources, often
unprotected Impossible to scale
12 IT Organization with Enterprise Storage
Network used for exchange of data
between clients and servers and between servers
themselves.
Enterprise Storage provides storage and exchange
of data by servers
Enterprise Storage
Simpler to manage, resources easily re-deployed,
superior protection. The next stage of
manageability and scalability

14 Why Networked Storage?
- Consolidation - Application Server and Storage
- Storage Consolidation
- Management - Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
- Disaster recovery - Backup / Restore
- Availability
- 7 x 24 x Forever
- Flexibility
- Rapid adaptation of changes in business
requirements - Capacity Expansion
- Performance
- Configuration
15 Shift in Customer Perceptions
New Paradigm
Historical View
1) IT saves dollars IT contributes to
revenue growth 2) Choose technology first
Put information needs first 3) Managing
technology Managing information 4)
Acquisition costs Total cost of
ownership 5) Rigid infrastructure
Change-tolerant infrastructure Technology /
Vendor lock-in Flexibility, compatibility

51 Conclusion - Trends
- Focus on the problem new technologies may
solve/displace - I/O bus vs. IP network vs. SCSI-based channel
network - Most of these new technology specifications have
not been defined, much less adopted as standards
