What is Storage Solutions
Data Storage Solutions are required to store the data electronically and making it machine readable. Purpose of these solutions is making data storage and access easy and reliable. The digital data excels in paperless data management.
Disk/ Storage Array contains drives and cache memory for a file, block, and object storage over dedicated storage hardware like spinning and solid hard disk drives, HDD and SSD. The standard disk array includes cache memory, controllers, disk enclosures, and power supply. A disk array distributes data efficiently on the multiple drives and allows flexible data management with improved data availability and recovery.
Disk Array and Network Storage for Servers
-
Network attached storage (NAS) arrays: NAS is a file-based storage system through which sharing files stored on the network with users is possible without affecting the network system. NAS systems may contain one or more storage drives. NAS is suitable for the small businesses and home networks it requires installing NAS devices onto the LAN through TCP/IP.
-
Storage area network (SAN) arrays: SAN network is the block level storage and a trustworthy data technology solution to process large amounts of data at low costs and is a highly flexible system. A local network of multiple devices and a single storage device that operates on the data files at the block level.SAN is advisable for business networks, as it needs high-end servers, high-capacity disk arrays, and Fiber Channel interconnection technology for faster data transfer.
Network Attached Storage (NAS) system contains several hard drives arranged into RAID arrays, which provides both storage and a file system while SAN provides block-based data storage. Both Network attached storage (NAS) and Storage area network (SAN) can work collectively in the same system if needed. When SAN and NAS connected into one device, observation is that most of the times NAS device that uses the same technology as SAN hence called as unified SAN.
Network Storage for Servers multiplies the storage capacity of your data center, protect data, augment backup of large amounts of data and maintaining the data recovery stabilizing the process of recovery even in long run. Its flexibility, high storage capacity, and affordable costs allow the user to match the exact requirements of network and servers.
NAS systems grant access from any computer system to the files stored on the network using the password. This network-based system is simple to configure, easy to manage, password protected data provides security and efficient access and transfer of files.
Direct Attached Storage (DAS) is low-cost storage and backup solution functioning with single or multiple drives connected in a RAID array. It connects directly to the server or host client without a network connection making it perfect for the local storage needs with ensured performance. NAS and SAN are costly solutions compared to DAS.
Dell, Intel, HP, IBM, Hitachi, and many others provide exceptional solutions to small and medium-sized enterprises for secure data storage.
