Brocade SAN solutions: A more effective approach to information storage and management

This white paper discusses the benefits of storage area networks (SANs), specifically those made by Brocade. SANs work to increase the efficiency of e-businesses and address “how to protect and access critical data, how to utilize computing resources more efficiently, and how to ensure the highest levels of business continuance.” Some good background on SANs is offered here as well as information on how incorporating SANs can have benefits that reach to other sections of your infrastructure, like improving backup and recovery, for a significant performance upgrade.
