Study Notes
Storage Definition
- Storage encompasses storage devices, software, networks, and solutions used in data centers.
Storage Systems
- Various storage systems, hardware, and software work together to provide data management solutions.
Storage Management
- Storage software manages data for integration, backup, and disaster recovery.
Storage Hardware
- Storage hardware includes physical storage devices such as disk arrays and tape libraries.
Storage Software
- Storage software increases usability by managing tasks like data mirroring, cloning, and automatic backups.
SAN Architecture
- SAN (Storage Area Network) is a dedicated network between servers and storage resources.
- FC SAN uses SCSI and Fiber Channel protocols for high-performance data transmission.
IP SAN Architecture
- IP SAN uses TCP/IP protocols over Ethernet and iSCSI for data transmission.
Technological Evolution of Storage Systems
- 1990s - Bus architecture: Scale-up limitations due to connected multi-controllers.
- 2000s - Hi-Star Architecture: Centralized switches connect frontend and backend storage ports.
- 2003 - Direct-Attached Architecture: Frontend and backend ports connect directly to cache.
- Present - Virtual Matrix Architecture: Scale-out, fully switched, using x86 servers and loosely coupled components.
High End Storage Systems
- Features include fully switched multi-controller architecture, global cache, data protection, quick response times, and online expansion.
Server SAN as Mainstream
- Server SAN is becoming the dominant storage system in enterprises with a 22.7% CAGR.
Cloud Storage Market
- Cloud storage market is expected to reach $29B by 2020.
- Public cloud and private cloud are experiencing significant growth (22.7% and 38.4% CAGR, respectively).
- Cloud storage offers centralized resource pools, reduced TTM (time to market), and TCO (total cost of ownership).
