How important is your company’s data? In today’s business world, it’s a question we’re often asked. As the technology in your office becomes more prevalent, a good backup system becomes more critical. Do you already have a good backup system installed? Is it working properly? Are you sure?

Most lost data in our business sector happens even though a backup system had been installed. The data was lost because a backup plan was not implemented correctly. It’s very easy to get relaxed, and forget to monitor your backups.
The storage area network (SAN) is an emerging architecture that offers a solution to information storage and delivery throughout the enterprise. A SAN offers a fast, reliable, point-to-point solution today but allows for future investment in hardware and software technologies.
The SAN methodology offers improvements in data reliability, availability, serviceability, scalability, flexibility and manageability. Users and applications are able to access information across heterogeneous platforms and share common storage, files and devices. To simplify, A SAN can be defined as a “high-speed network that establishes a direct connection between storage elements and servers”. Fiber Channel technology has opened a pathway for this methodology to be deployed as an internationally accepted standard.
The basic building blocks of a SAN include an interface (Fiber Channel, SCSI, ESCON), interconnects (switches, routers, hubs), a protocol (SCSI, IP), software and storage devices (RAID, tape libraries, optical devices) all attached to multiple servers.
