Neither is the notion of multi-host attached shared storage. All mainframe data centers are configured this way and currently 25% to 35% of all network traffic passes over a SAN. What is new is that these tried-and-true architectures are being adopted in the distributed network, primarily through a storage topology called Fibre Channel. But, the essence of what SANs really represent is the leading methodology by which enterprise storage is "externalized and consolidated." Read why externalized storage is key in this white paper. >> For more information, or to download this white paper, CLICK: http://search390.techtarget.com/whitepaperPage/0,293857,sid10_gci845981,00.html >> For more white papers, CLICK: http://search390.techtarget.com/whitepapers =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= THE MISSING LINK | Keyboard putting you at risk for carpal tunnel? There goes another good excuse to retire early. According to some researchers in Denmark, the possibility that a computer keyboard will give you carpal tunnel syndrome is small. They studied about 7,000 workers over the course of a year and found that between 1.4% and 4.8% possibly had the affliction -- a small enough percentage for the researchers to proclaim that computer use "does not pose a severe occupational hazard for developing [the] symptoms" -- provided you don't use the keyboard like Jerry Lee Lewis used the piano.
