- What Is iSCSI? Definition, Performance Limitations
iSCSI is a storage protocol for connecting computers and storage devices over an IP network Learn more about how it works and its benefits
- Storage Basics: iSCSI - Enterprise Storage Forum
Until iSCSI, which stands for the Internet Small Computer Systems Interface, came along, it was not possible to transfer SCSI data where the distance between the storage initiator and storage target was further than 25 meters
- How iSCSI Lost the War - Enterprise Storage Forum
I believe that iSCSI’s performance and the complexity of storage management doomed it to failure as the replacement for Fibre Channel storage networking iSCSI has a place at the storage table as a tool for extending storage to the WAN, and I believe this is a good tool
- iSCSI, FCIP, iFCP … and iFUD? - Enterprise Storage Forum
Unlike iSCSI, however, FCIP and iFCP have not gone through the same rigorous interoperability testing process During the requirements formulation for iSCSI within the IETF, the University of New Hampshire conducted regular iSCSI standards-compliance testing and the SNIA, through the IP Storage Forum, conducted periodic iSCSI interoperability
- iSCSI’s Effect on the Eternal NAS vs. SAN Debate
The advent of iSCSI is now changing the terms of the NAS versus SAN debate Like its Fibre Channel predecessor, iSCSI offers a new means to access storage over a network Unlike Fibre Channel, iSCSI and NAS operate over the same type of network and so would appear to compete for the same storage market
- Is iSCSI Reality Finally Matching Hype? - Enterprise Storage Forum
Big things have been predicted for iSCSI for what seems like years, with each new year bringing with it claims that iSCSI would finally hit the big time
- Storage Basics: Securing iSCSI Using IPSec, Part 2
In a previous Storage Basics article, we looked at securing IP communications using the IPSec protocol With many storage implementations moving toward IP-based solutions such as iSCSI, the importance of securing IP transmissions becomes critical, especially considering that many of the programs we use send clear text across the network Such applications include FTP, Telnet, POP3 and IMAP In
- Storage Basics: Securing iSCSI using IPSec - Enterprise Storage Forum
While iSCSI has emerged as an alternative to Fibre Channel, securing IP communications is an important consideration IPSec provides a method to secure IP transmissions in a heterogeneous environment In the next Storage Basics article, we will look at working with IPSec in a Windows 2003 environment and configuring IPSec with the NETSH command »
