Summary

Efficient management of stored data is becoming a necessity for every enterprise. The high cost of downtime creates a need for the increased reliability provided by distributed storage systems. Thus the use of storage networks to manage access to data not only provides an increase in performance and survivability, but also generates real and immediate cost savings.

This book focuses on three primary areas: architectures for distributed storage networks, storage protocols and their inherent distance limitations, and management techniques for distributed storage networks.

Distributed Storage Networks

  • describes the evolution of data processing from a computer-centric to a storage-centric model
  • introduces the concept of a distributed storage-centric processing model
  • explains common storage network functional components, such as fabric switches, storage directors, file managers, and gateways, and their roles in a distributed storage environment
  • discusses distributed storage network applications, including storage integration, remote database synchronization, and backup/recovery functions
  • provides a comparative view of Storage Area Network (SAN) and Network Attached Storage (NAS) functions and capabilities, and points out the advantages of each

One of the primary obstacles to implementing a storage network cited by enterprise IT managers is a lack of knowledge about storage networking technology and the specific issues involved in extending a SAN or NAS over the MAN or WAN. The primary goal of this book is to provide IT managers, planners, and telecommunications professionals with the information they need in order to choose the technologies best suited for their particular environment.

摘要



對於每個企業來說，有效管理存儲數據已成為必需。停機的高成本使得分佈式存儲系統的可靠性需求增加。因此，使用存儲網絡來管理對數據的訪問不僅提供了性能和可靠性的提升，還產生了實際和即時的成本節省。


本書主要關注三個主要領域：分佈式存儲網絡的架構、存儲協議及其固有的距離限制，以及分佈式存儲網絡的管理技術。


分佈式存儲網絡



  • 描述了數據處理從以計算機為中心模型到以存儲為中心模型的演變

  • 介紹了分佈式存儲為中心處理模型的概念

  • 解釋了常見的存儲網絡功能組件，如布線交換機、存儲總監、文件管理器和閘道器，以及它們在分佈式存儲環境中的角色

  • 討論了分佈式存儲網絡應用，包括存儲集成、遠程數據庫同步和備份/恢復功能

  • 提供了存儲區域網絡（SAN）和網絡附加存儲（NAS）功能和能力的比較視圖，並指出每個的優勢


企業IT經理在實施存儲網絡時遇到的主要障礙之一是對存儲網絡技術和在MAN或WAN上擴展SAN或NAS所涉及的具體問題的缺乏了解。本書的主要目標是為IT經理、規劃者和電信專業人員提供他們在選擇最適合其特定環境的技術所需的信息。
