2. Storage area network - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storage_area_network

   Layer 0. Physical. A storage area network (SAN) or storage network is a computer network which provides access to consolidated, block-level data storage. SANs are primarily used to access data storage devices, such as disk arrays and tape libraries from servers so that the devices appear to the operating system as direct-attached storage.

3. Fibre Channel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel

   Fibre Channel (FC) is a high-speed data transfer protocol providing in-order, lossless [1] delivery of raw block data. [2] Fibre Channel is primarily used to connect computer data storage to servers [3][4] in storage area networks (SAN) in commercial data centers. Fibre Channel networks form a switched fabric because the switches in a network ...

4. Z-SAN - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-SAN

   Z-SAN is a proprietary type of storage area network licensed by Zetera corporation. Z-SAN hardware is bundled with a modified version of SAN-FS, which is a shared disk file system driver and management software product SAN File System (SFS) made by DataPlow. [1] The shared disk file system allows multiple computers to access the same volume at ...

6. Compellent Technologies - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compellent_Technologies

   Compellent’s storage area network (SAN) system, called "Storage Center", combines several virtualized storage-management applications with hardware. The product tracks metadata, information about each block of data stored on the Compellent system, including the date and time written, frequency of access, associated volume, type of disk drive used, type of data stored and RAID level. [5]

7. VSAN - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSAN

   A virtual storage area network (virtual SAN, VSAN or vSAN) is a logical representation of a physical storage area network (SAN). A VSAN abstracts the storage-related operations from the physical storage layer, and provides shared storage access to the applications and virtual machines by combining the servers' local storage over a network into a single or multiple storage pools.

8. Fibre Channel zoning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_zoning

   Physical. In storage networking, Fibre Channel zoning is the partitioning of a Fibre Channel fabric into smaller subsets to restrict interference, add security, and to simplify management. While a SAN makes available several devices and/or ports to a single device, each system connected to the SAN should only be allowed access to a controlled ...

9. Fibre Channel switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_switch

   In the computer storage field, a Fibre Channel switch is a network switch compatible with the Fibre Channel (FC) protocol. It allows the creation of a Fibre Channel fabric, that is the core component of a storage area network (SAN). The fabric is a network of Fibre Channel devices which allows many-to-many communication, device name lookup ...
