SAN or storage area network provides easy access to the block level, consolidated data storage and is a type of dedicated network. SAN is used for the purpose of high-speed special network so that various kinds of data storage devices can be interconnected associating the data servers having a large network. SAN online training teaches you to primarily use this network to prepare storage devices like disk arrays, optical jukeboxes, tape libraries that are easily accessible to the libraries as well as optical jukeboxes and the servers so that the devices look like devices locally attached to the operating system.
SAN comes with its own type of storage devices network that cannot be accessed through the network of the other local area devices. With the complexity and cost of the SAN dropping lately wider adoption through both small and medium sized enterprises and business houses has become possible, increasing the scope for SAN online training and the employment in this field.
Course Details
SAN storage training course covers various technologies in SAN (Storage Area Network) Domain. It starts with data storage, its importance and explosive growth of data. It then goes on to describe various Storage Topologies such as DAS, NAS and SAN which were evolved to support the exponential growth in data. Subsequently, it covers Fundamental Storage Protocols (SCSI, SATA, SAS, Fiber Channel, iSCSI), Block Storage Technologies (RAID, Volume Manager), Storage Virtualization, Storage and Data Management techniques.
SAN (Storage Area Network) is the most demanding and fastest growing technology in the world, every company/organization (Small/Medium/Large) is trying to have a Storage Infrastructure to benifit from historical data copies – apply advanced data science techniques and also suffice increasing customer demands to hold more and more pesonal user data.
This course covers Storage Fundamentals irrespective of any Vendor – this is especially useful for Students who are completely new to SAN providing them a baseline and conceptual background. Later we get to more advanced topics including SAN Switches, EMC SAN and NAS Storage Arrays including Clariion, VNX, DMX and VMAX.
We provide you with practical knowledge with real time working professionals which is part and parcel of their daily routine, we also provide you with step by step documentations and lot of training materials which cover 5 different Training modules from EMC.
