Implement cost-effective disaster recovery that leverages reliable data replication, OS image integrity and efficient workload provisioning to achieve faster RTO and RPO. Explore a configuration that implements Fiber Channel, IP and Ethernet networks and more to manage the provisioning of workload identities and network configuration. 

In the on-going war between storage technologies, Fibre Channel and iSCSI continue to battle it out. Both have strong arguments to recommend them, and flaws to consider. How do you choose? Read this white paper to find out. 

This chapter discusses the process of evaluating and purchasing backup products. Also discussed are the issues to be aware of during this process, such as recovery deadlines, scalability, security, and more. 

Dell Compellent Storage Center arrays utilize a virtualized architecture. This architecture not only enables technology independence between servers and storage, but it also supports key features such as thin provisioning, automated data tiering, and data protection, all of which enable exceptionally high efficiency in managing data storage. 

The protocol utilized to transport data between servers and storage for High Performance Computing (HPC) and to define a Storage Area Network (SAN) is Fibre Channel(FC). Fibre Channel is an "invisible" protocol, because it is only known to the technicians that implement it and keep it working. This paper will provide an overview of this technology. 

This white paper was written to help those that are considering or have already made the move to iSCSI, and to enable a smooth adoption of Dell EqualLogic. Read now to learn more. 

With 10 GbE technology enhancements enabling IP storage to leapfrog the performance of Fibre Channel at 2 Gbps or 4 Gbps, data center managers no longer need to make performance compromises in order to benefit from the traditional advantages of Ethernet over more specialized switching fabrics.
