Storage Area Networks
A Storage Area Network (SAN) is a discrete network of servers and storage devices (RAID, Tape Libraries, etc.) attached together via a high speed I/O interconnect, such as Fibre Channel or SAS, or standard network infrastructure such as Ethernet. Storage LUNs on the SAN appear as local volumes to application server operating systems. The file system is maintained by the application server and data is transferred at the block level via Fibre Channel, SAS, or IP from the server directly to the disk volume on the SAN.
