JAD Logic - Stonefly IP SANs

StoneFly’s complete line of Storage Concentrators™ are IP-based storage provisioning appliances that enable SME and large enterprises to manage and optimize their storage assets in real-time. Combining the functionality of an iSCSI router and bridge with the power of a storage provisioning engine, Storage Concentrators are installed as a centralised appliance at the core of the network for logical volume management of cost effective IP SANs.

To alleviate the challenges of storage management in a distributed environment, StoneFly’s Storage Concentrators leverage the proliferation of Gigabit Ethernet and IP in the enterprise more cost effectively and with greater efficiency than existing solutions. While Fibre Channel and server-based volume management can be costly and complex, StoneFly's Storage Concentrators allow simple, intelligent, and affordable SANs by utilising the existing IP network infrastructure.

The Benefits of Storage Networking

Highly available bandwidth and the falling costs of storage devices have made Internet Protocol (IP) an increasingly attractive storage mechanism for many organisations. Advancing this goal calls for a new, yet standard way of accessing storage devices through IP networks. Businesses can now turn to IP storage networking as a way to get better control over their stored data. Intelligent IP SANs, that move traditional host based volume management into an purpose built IP SAN engine, allow companies to pool existing and new storage assets, providing more efficient utilisation, streamlined management, rapid deployment and reconfiguration of storage, and reduced backup and restore times.

The following list identifies some key trends driving the adoption of storage networking:

• A diverse range of users and application

that require sharing of common information.

• The growing use of single-function

computing elements that provide

performance, reliability, and lower cost of

ownership.

• The use of common network standards like

TCP/IP and ubiquitous interconnect

technologies such as Ethernet

• A desire to deploy solutions with features

that provide competitive business

advantages and minimum downtime on an

application-by-application basis.

• Response to the growing body of regulatory

requirements for data storage of email,

financial records, medical records, etc.

• The need to reduce storage management

costs and complexities through central

simplified administration.

• The demand to scale infrastructures easily,

without adding technical resources.

• The repositioning of resources within an

infrastructure to take advantage of cost

savings in existing hardware and expertise.
