Microsoft Storage Technologies: Deploying iSCSI SANs
Published: July 19, 2004
Networked storage solutions have enabled organizations to more effectively share, consolidate, and manage resources than was possible with direct attached storage (DAS). The shift from server-centric storage to networked storage has been dependent on the development of technologies that can transfer data to and from storage as fast as, or faster than, direct attached technologies while also overcoming the limitations inherent in parallel SCSI, the dominant interconnect for DAS.
