Businesses continue to face increasing threats due to the availability and security of systems and data. What’s more, increasing regulatory and compliance obligations challenge you to geographically separate systems to ensure compliance and reduce disruption. This calls for an integrated business continuity and availability strategy to maintain easy access to data - Storage consolidation solutions. Storage consolidation helps organizations to transform their IT environment and dramatically increase their ability to add value to the business.

Broadly, storage is divided into

• Backup (Standalone DAT, LTO, Autoloaders, Tape Libraries& Virtual tape Libraries, Disk based Backup)
• Storage (NAS, Stand-alone Disk-storage, ISCSI-SAN, FC SAN, Unified Storage solution, Blade storage and enterprise class SAN solution)

Embee offers integrated consolidation solutions that can help your organization standardize and simplify your storage environment in a flexible and systematic way.

• Application Consolidation
• Backup consolidation
• Online and SAN Consolidation
• Unified Infrastructure Management
• Storage virtualization

Specifically, storage systems may use virtualization concepts as a tool to enable better functionality and more advanced features within the storage system.

Broadly speaking, a 'storage system' is also known as a storage array or Disk Array or a filer. Storage systems typically utilize specialized hardware and software along with disk drives in order to provide very fast and reliable storage for computing and data processing. They are complex and may be thought of as a special purpose computer designed to provide storage capacity along with advanced data protection features. Disk drives are only one element within a storage system, along with hardware and special purpose embedded software within the system.

Storage systems can provide either block accessed storage, or file accessed storage. Block access is typically delivered over fiber channel, iSCSI, SAS, FICON, ESCON or other protocols. File access is often provided using NFS or CIFS protocols.

Within the context of a storage system, there are two primary types of virtualization that can occur:

• Block Virtualization
• File Virtualization

Block virtualization refers to the abstraction (separation) of logical storage from physical storage so that it may be accessed without regard to physical storage or heterogeneous structure. This separation allows the administrators of the storage system greater flexibility in how they manage storage for end users.

File Virtualization addresses the NAS challenges by eliminating the dependencies between the data accessed at the file level and the location where the files are physically stored. This provides opportunities to optimize storage utilization and server consolidation and to perform non-disruptive file migrations.
