Storage Area Network

SAN (Storage Area Network) systems are used in schools, businesses and government agencies where access to data by multiple users at the same time is critical. A SAN is essentially a subnetwork of shared storage devices, and makes all those devices available to all servers on a network. SAN’s are commonly used for high-speed access to data on email servers, databases, and high-usage file servers. Video editing workgroups in media and entertainment that require very high data rates can also benefit greatly from a SAN. Because data does not reside directly on any of a network’s servers, server power can be utilized for other applications.
