IP Storage is a new storage technology that is gaining in growing popularity with customers. Customers are finding that IP Storage opens up a new alternative to move Windows servers into a SAN environment with the benefit of lower hardware and management costs. iSCSI SANs help customers utilize storage resources more effectively, centralize storage management, and keep up with the growth in storage all with a lower total cost of ownership (TCO). This white paper discusses iSCSI SANs, including SAN components, market forecasts, comparisons to other storage technologies and example iSCSI SAN applications.
