Die rasche Entwicklung des E-Commerce und die Notwendigkeit, verschiedene Applikationen ablaufen zu lassen, w?hrend die Verbindung zum Internet aufrecht erhalten bleibt, ?berfordert traditionelle Speichermethoden. Dieses Buch erl?utert System- und Netzwerkmanagern eine L?sung: Design und Implementierung von Storage Area Networks (SAN), die wahrscheinlich die Technologien der verteilten Anwendungen revolutionieren werden.
As a storage novice coming at storage with a networking background, I found this book to be an excellent introduction to storage. The book is particularly effective at illustrating how intertwined storage infrastructure can be (you can solve the exact same problem with fundamentally different approaches - application, volume, array-based solutions). Networking is relatively straightforward by comparison.
A great reference book

Reading this book I have learned as much on file system, volume management, database I/O as I have learned on SAN. It gave me a better understanding of the storage problem I was trying to solve and great pointers on the pitfalls to avoid and where focus should be when building a SAN. A "must have".
SANs solve business IT problems

Students and professionals, alike, will appreciate this book, as it is comprehensive and written and designed in a user friendly format. It features an extensive dictionary that allows for easy access to the terminologies surrounding SAN.There are other books that talk a lot about building infrastructure, but this one provides the most complete coverage of what is needed to use SANs to solve business IT problems. Although the book is quite terse on wires and protocols, I was pleased to see which business applications were sensible for use with SANs. Good information on benefits, killer applications, software architectures and requirements, implementation and management.I would also recommend "Blueprints for High Availability" by Evan Marcus (with Hal Stern)
