Storage Networks Explained

Basics and Application of Fibre Channel SAN, NAS, iSCSI, InfiniBand and FCoE

By: Ulf Troppens,Rainer Erkens,Wolfgang Muller-Friedt,Rainer Wolafka,Nils Haustein

All you need to know about Storage Area Networks The amount of data of an average company doubles every year. Thus, companies who own 1TB of data today will own 32TB in five years. Storage networks help to tame such data quantities and to manage this data growth efficiently. Since stored data and information are the biggest asset of any company, anyone who is involved in the planning or the operation of IT systems requires a basic knowledge of the principle and the use of storage networks. Storage Networks Explained covers the fundaments, techniques and functions of storage networks such as disk subsystems, Fibre Channel SAN, Internet SCSI (iSCSI), Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), Network Attached Storage (NAS), file systems, and storage virtualization. Furthermore the authors describe the use of these techniques and how they are designed to achieve high-availability, flexibility, and scalability of data and applications. Additional attention is given to network backup and the management of storage networks. Written by leading experts in the field, this book on storage area networks is updated and fully revised. Key features: Presents the basic concepts of storage networks, such as I/O techniques, disk subsystems, virtualization, NAS and SAN file systems Covers the design of storage networks which provide flexible, highly-available, and scaleable IT systems Explains the use of storage networks for data sharing, data protection, and digital archiving Discusses management of storage networks using SNMP, SMI-S, and IEEE 1244 This book provides system administrators and system architects, as well as students and decision makers, with the tools needed for optimal selection and cost-effective use of storage networks. The Linux Journal awarded the first edition with the "Editor's Choice Award 2005" in the category "System Administration Book.

Renewable Resources for Surface Coatings, Inks and Adhesives

By: Rainer Höfer

Providing a detailed survey of renewable raw materials for paints, inks and glues, this book is ideal for researchers and practitioners working in the areas of green chemistry, industrial chemistry and sustainability. Beginning with a brief history of coatings and adhesives, this book walks the reader through the chemistry, properties, sourcing and processing of a number of renewable raw materials, including lipids, natural resins, proteins, and carbohydrates. Their use in a range of recent developments and concepts from material protection, to decorative paints and coatings, adhesives and sealants is highlighted, providing the reader with a complete and modern foundation to the field.

Storage Networks Explained

Basics and Application of Fibre Channel SAN, NAS, iSCSI and InfiniBand

By: Ulf Troppens,Rainer Erkens,Wolfgang Müller

Storage Networks Explained has much to recommend it.... ararity in the literature of digital data storage – a completeexposition of both the base subject matter and its applications,which at the same time offers a level of readability making itsuitable as an introduction to the subject. Storage NetworksExplained is also flexible. It can be read cover-to-cover,browsed, or used as a reference. I recommend Storage NetworksExplained as an essential component of any active informationtechnology library." —Paul Massiglia, Technical Director, VERITASSoftware Corporation Storage networks will become a basic technology likedatabases or local area networks. According to market research, 70%of external storage devices will be connected via storage networksin 2003. The authors have hands-on experience of network storagehardware and software, they teach customers about concrete networkstorage products, they understand the concepts behind storagenetworks, and show customers how storage networks address theirbusiness needs. Storage networks provide shared access to stored data frommultiple computers and servers, thus increasing storageefficiency and availability. They permit informationmanagement functions such as backup and recovery, data mirroring,disaster recovery, and data migration to be performed quickly andefficiently, with a minimum of system overhead. This book explains how to use storage networks to fixmalfunctioning business processes, covering the technologies aswell as applications. A hot topic that will become increasinglyimportant in the coming years. One of the first books to focus on using rather than buildingstorage networks, and how to solve problems. Looking beyond technology and showing the true benefits ofstorage networks. Covers fibre channel SAN, Network Attached Storage, iSCSI andInfiniBand technologies. Contains several case studies (e.g. the example of a travelportal, protecting a critical database) Endorsed by the Storage Networking Industry Association. Written by very experienced professionals who tailored the bookspecifically to meet customer needs including support withsupplementry material on Troppens website and Preface written byTony Clark. Provides basic application information key for systemsadministrators, database administrators and managers who need toknow about the networking aspects of their systems. As well assystems architects, network managers, information managementdirectors and decision makers. This book also supports applications for graduate students andother relevant courses in the field. Awarded Best System Administration Book 2005 by theLinux Journal
