商品描述

Data is the lifeblood of modern business, and modern data centers have extremely demanding requirements for size, speed, and reliability. Storage Area Networks (SANs) and Network Attached Storage (NAS) allow organizations to manage and back up huge file systems quickly, thereby keeping their lifeblood flowing. W. Curtis Preston's insightful book takes you through the ins and outs of building and managing large data centers using SANs and NAS.

As a network administrator you're aware that multi-terabyte data stores are common and petabyte data stores are starting to appear. Given this much data, how do you ensure that it is available all the time, that access times and throughput are reasonable, and that the data can be backed up and restored in a timely manner? SANs and NAS provide solutions that help you work through these problems, with special attention to the difficulty of backing up huge data stores.

This book explains the similarities and differences of SANs and NAS to help you determine which, or both, of these complementing technologies are appropriate for your network. Using SANs, for instance, is a way to share multiple devices (tape drives and disk drives) for storage, while NAS is a means for centrally storing files so they can be shared. Preston exams each technology with a vendor neutral approach, starting with the building blocks of a SAN and how they can be assembled for effective storage solutions. He covers day-to-day management and backup and recovery for both SANs and NAS in detail.

Whether you're a seasoned storage administrator or a network administrator charged with taking on this role, you'll find all the information you need to make informed architecture and data management decisions. The book fans out to explore technologies such as RAID and other forms of monitoring that will help complement your data center. With an eye on the future, other technologies that might affect the architecture and management of the data center are explored. This is sure to be an essential volume in any network administrator's or storage administrator's library.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

資料是現代商業的命脈,而現代數據中心對於大小、速度和可靠性有著極高的要求。儲存區域網路(SAN)和網路附加儲存(NAS)使組織能夠快速管理和備份龐大的檔案系統,從而保持其命脈的流動。W. Curtis Preston 的這本深刻著作將帶您了解使用 SAN 和 NAS 建立及管理大型數據中心的方方面面。

作為一名網路管理員,您應該知道多 TB 的數據存儲已經很常見,而 PB 的數據存儲也開始出現。面對如此龐大的數據,您如何確保它始終可用,存取時間和吞吐量合理,以及數據能夠及時備份和恢復?SAN 和 NAS 提供了解決方案,幫助您解決這些問題,特別是針對備份龐大數據存儲的困難。

本書解釋了 SAN 和 NAS 的相似性和差異,幫助您確定這兩種互補技術中哪一種或兩者都適合您的網路。例如,使用 SAN 是共享多個設備(磁帶驅動器和磁碟驅動器)進行儲存的一種方式,而 NAS 則是集中儲存檔案以便共享的手段。Preston 以中立的供應商視角檢視每種技術,從 SAN 的基本構件開始,說明如何組裝以實現有效的儲存解決方案。他詳細介紹了 SAN 和 NAS 的日常管理以及備份和恢復。

無論您是經驗豐富的儲存管理員,還是負責擔任此角色的網路管理員,您都會發現所有需要的信息,以便做出明智的架構和數據管理決策。本書還探討了 RAID 等技術及其他監控形式,這些都將有助於補充您的數據中心。展望未來,還探討了可能影響數據中心架構和管理的其他技術。這本書必將成為任何網路管理員或儲存管理員圖書館中的重要著作。
