Storage Area Network (SAN)
Database Storage with High Performance & Availability
Storage area networks capitalize on the best of the storage and network technologies to provide a low latency, high bandwidth interconnect
which can span large distances, provide high connectivity and good management infrastructure from the start.
SAN - Database Storage with High Performance and Capacity
A Storage Area Network (SAN), is the natural choice for database storage. Its fully-redundant architecture makes it a Highly Available,
reliable solution—a must-have for any mission critical database. Additionally, its high storage capacity makes SAN an extremely
scalable solution, offering the ability to grow with your changing storage needs.
Rackspace offers you two fully-managed EMC® SAN choices—shared SAN and dedicated SAN—for diverse database storage needs.
Choose from various storage models offered upon two storage solutions, depending on your performance and capacity needs, as well as a choice of RAID configurations
for optimal protection and performance.
When you supplement the technology and choices with our expert SAN Engineers and second-to-none support, you have a serious, reliable
storage solution—without the complexities and costs that come with building, maintaining and running SAN.
