WHITE PAPER:
iSCSI technology provides superior manageability to Fibre Channel for virtualized environments. Specifically, iSCSI lets users in virtualized environments utilize all the functionality available to non-virtualized systems.
WHITE PAPER:
Rising energy costs and growing volumes of information mean is a sign to increase the efficiency of storage systems and reduce power consumption. Employing capabilities such as disk drive spin-down, virtual provisioning, and tiered storage design in Dell/EMC CX4 Series storage arrays helps IT organizations keep energy costs under control.
WHITE PAPER:
This paper demonstrates Dell best practices for implementing iSCSI boot from SAN with Dell EqualLogic storage arrays and the 12th generation (12G) PowerEdge servers running Windows Server 2012.
WHITE PAPER:
Fibre Channel and iSCSI storage systems are not delivering the price-performance and agility at the storage layer required to keep up with the new virtualized compute layer. This paper explores a third storage networking technology, Ethernet SAN, and why you don’t have to choose between iSCSI and Fibre Channel.
WHITE PAPER:
Dell EqualLogic Auto- Snapshot Manager / VMware Edition enables administrators to quickly and easily create hypervisor-aware snapshots of VMs-helping simplify data management, enhance scalability of data protection and recovery, and increase application performance.
WHITE PAPER:
With the advent of iSCSI as the standard for networked storage, businesses can leverage existing skills and network infrastructure to create Ethernet-based SANs that deliver the performance of Fibre Channel-but at a fraction of the cost.
WHITE PAPER:
To supplement the growth in iSCSI SANs, Dell has introduced an iSCSI-to-SAS bridge card for the TL-series of tape libraries. This allows a customer to directly attach a tape backup target to their iSCSI 1Gb Ethernet SAN with little to no degradation in transfer speed. This white paper explores
this setup and configuration.
WHITE PAPER:
The Dell/EMC NS family of unified storage enables organizations to easily and cost-effectively consolidate both unstructured file-system data and structured application data into a single shared storage system - helping organizations control costs, streamline management, and enhance storage availability and performance.
WHITE PAPER:
This document discusses how Network Appliance and VMware ESX Server 3.0 work together to provide an effective backup solution in the Loyola Marymount University (LMU) environment. The goal of the VMware/NetApp solution is to provide a crash-consistent process that takes advantage of snapshot-based backups.
WHITE PAPER:
Some iSCSI vendors bring complex multi-node failover mechanisms and more to the table, complicating head-to-head comparisons. In this report Taneja Group sets out to examine Dell’s differentiation in the midst of a crowded and rapidly growing field.
