Semi Symmetric Method Of SAN Storage Virtualization
This addresses storage management challenges for enterprise installations requiring high availability and seamless expansion, but appears incremental as it builds on existing virtualization methods.
The paper tackles the problem of storage virtualization in Storage Area Networks (SANs) by proposing a new method to overcome limitations of existing approaches, aiming to improve scalability and workload management without specifying concrete results or numbers.
Virtualization is one of the biggest buzzwords of the technology industry right at this moment. The fast growth in storage capacity and processing power in enterprise installations coupled with the need for high availability, requires Storage Area Network (SAN) architecture to provide seamless addition of storage and performance elements without downtime. The usual goal of virtualization is to centralize administrative tasks while improving scalability and work loads. This paper, describing about new proposed method for virtualization, which would be overcome limitations of existed methods for storage virtualization
