Why You Need to Invest in SAN Storage?

Posted by Aventis Systems, Inc on September 3rd, 2018

Network storage is important to a company’s productivity. Affordable, flexible storage that can scale to accommodate intentional growth and adapt when something unexpected happens is critical to keep your business up and running.  

Storage Area Networks 

Storage area networks (SAN) provide a way for companies to achieve performance goals. While SANs were used primarily in large companies, small companies are now incorporating them as well. With implementation costs decreasing and storage demands increasing, an investment in HP san storage makes sense. It provides access to consolidated, block level data storage that enhances storage devices accessibility to servers because the operating system sees them as if they were attached locally. 

The Cloud, SANs, and Hybrids

More and more companies are utilizing cloud-based services to expand their storage capacities beyond their existing infrastructure. The main difference between storage area networks and cloud storage is that SAN systems are hosted through a company’s own servers while the cloud stores data virtually through internet servers. 

Cloud hosting services can be more cost-effective than buying additional storage hardware. Businesses that can't invest in additional infrastructure are turning to the cloud. Other companies prefer a hybrid approach that uses the cloud for archives or lower-priority items and SANs for items that need to be available quickly. This approach lets them customize a solution that can accommodate both their practical needs and their budget constraints. 

A good storage management solution, lets small businesses maximize server performance, back up important data, prepare for unexpected disasters, improve the availability of various applications, and simplify data management.
