iSCSI technology Global 2000 companies take root in the depth of coverage
Recent research by independent IT Company TIP of the end-user survey findings made by the iSCSI Technology In the Global 2000 Enterprise Interesting phenomenon within the application. Historically, many SMEs took a fancy to iSCSI easy to use and low cost while the use of the technology. Bodies of these enterprises are not interested in Fibre Channel technology, iSCSI to provide them with a migration from DAS to networked storage in a relatively simple way. In contrast, Global 2000 companies will be major investment on the Fiber Channel technology.
Another look today. TIP latest research shows that, in fact, large companies have begun to use iSCSI technology, but also in the iSCSI technology spending to grow rapidly. But there is a question: "Global 2000 companies is how to use iSCSI technology?"
TIP and more than 150 stores Expert Face to face Interview Recording in detail the time course of storage technology. TIP found that about 16% of Global 2000 companies have already installed iSCIS storage. Although this rate is not alarmingly high, but considering iSCIS recent years become a major technology trends, user experience, feedback and increased spending plans, iSCSI technology does reflect some interesting trends.
When asked about iSCSI in those applications within business organizations and the way the time, 40% said they would increase spending in the iSCSI technology to further expand the technology to save the replication and remote storage environment the cost. (Overall, 40% of the respondents said they planned to increase in the coming years IPSAN investment, 32% of the respondents said that spending the same, 28% of respondents will reduce the investment in IPSAN)
While iSCSI is still far from a large data center dominant SAN technology, but it has some areas of the enterprise has laid a solid foundation, the demand for services such as file Windows environment to use Windows-based Large hierarchical organizations / remote offices, for non-mission-critical data with low cost Disaster Recovery solution.
changes brought about iSCSI Study shows that, according to TIP, iSCSI remote offices in large areas of traditional use is to copy, file sharing and e-mail archiving. However, with enterprises and organizations to create a tiered storage, server virtualization on all aspects of IT infrastructure, an enormous influence in the past few years, iSCSI technology applications within the enterprise sector has undergone tremendous changes.
Found many business organizations, using iSCSI to simplify the configuration of the virtual server, using IP technology to extract from the physical storage advantages of the virtual server?? To migration and re-structure easier. iSCSI application is no longer limited to local pure iSCSI and Fibre Channel environment or the composition of the mixed environment. Just a year ago, iSCSI in this mixed environment is through the gateway and Fibre Channel SAN connectivity, and now users can use the remote edge IP storage and Fibre Channel SAN through the WAN connected. In the local area, users often connect NAS and iSCSI target gateway, configure end-to-end shared LAN and LAN?? To focus on backup, Microsoft SQL services and documentation services.
The results, those using iSCSI technology to large enterprises that iSCSI data recovery, file copy, and flexibility with maximum play to their strengths.
