The
LAN world is about to go through another revolution
in terms of storage. This revolution—known as
a Storage Area Network (SAN)—involves moving network
storage from its traditional location—inside,
or directly connected to, file servers—to a separate
network of its own. Disk, tape, and optical storage
can then be attached directly to this network, which
is based on a "fabric" of fibre, switches
and hubs that connects storage devices to a heterogeneous
set of servers on a many-to-many basis.
A SAN is thus a dedicated storage network that carries
I/O traffic only between servers and storage devices—it
does not carry any application traffic, which eliminates
the bottlenecks associated with using a single network
fabric for all applications. A SAN can also enable direct
storage-to-storage interconnectivity, and lends itself
to the exploitation of new breeds of clustering technology
and to getting the best out of Network Attached Storage
devices that can intelligently provide disk and tape
capabilities to one or more servers.
SAN or Storage Area Networking industry is vast &
has huge demand for professionals - the industry is
exploding due to the high demand of Storage needs for
growing data centers, growing news & broadcasting
domains you name it every business needs a huge data
storage.
When storage needs are growing then some of the core
storage jobs are growing since all these industries
need human resources or technical expertise to handle
the operations.

Foundations
courses for a comprehensive introduction to data storage
technology fundamentals. To gain knowledge of the core
logical and physical components that makes up a modern
storage infrastructure.
In-depth SAN training on real time environment, to the
various levels of design, implementation and management.
Complete SAN training to master with the concepts of
Disaster recovery and business continuity.
The training will be carried out by SAN architects who
have been experienced on SAN technologies for 1.5 decade.
Regular assignments of case studies, implementation,
discussions, solid material, interpersonal skills are
common part of the training.
