Network Storage: Tools and Technologies for Storing Your Company’s Data is an informative guide to understanding the different storage technologies that are currently available in the market. It provides a clear overview of the changes occurring in storage, what they mean, and how to navigate the challenges that arise as a result of these changes. The book is an invaluable resource for IT managers who want to create a solid foundation for the coming decades.

Starting with an overview of the current state of storage, the book explores its evolution from a network perspective, including different protocols and connection schemes and how they differ in use case and operational behavior. The book also examines software changes that are driving this evolution, such as data management, in-stream processing and storage in virtual systems, and changes in the decades-old OS stack.

The book looks at software-defined storage as a way to construct storage networks, the impact of big data, high-performance computing, and the cloud on storage networking. The book also examines how data is split up and moved to the various appliances holding that dataset and its impact on network and data integrity.

Data security is a significant concern, and the book offers a comprehensive discussion of security issues and remedies that can be applied to address them. The book concludes with a look at technologies on the horizon that will impact storage and its networks, such as NVDIMMs, The Hybrid Memory Cube, VSANs, and NAND Killers.

Key features of the book include:
• Puts all the new developments in storage networking in a clear perspective for near-term and long-term planning
• Offers a complete overview of storage networking, serving as a go-to resource for creating a coherent implementation plan
• Provides the details needed to understand the area and clears a path through the confusion and hype that surrounds such a radical revolution of the industry
