iSCSI (internet SCSI) is a protocol that allows clients (initiators) to send SCSI commands to SCSI storage devices (targets) on remote servers. iSCSI is a popular Storage Area Networking (SAN) protocol. Unlike Fiber Channel, iSCSI requires no special-purpose cabling, and can be run over long distances using existing network infrastructure. Many organizations are looking to iSCSI as a cost-effective solution to Fibre Channel

Utilizes a block level interface - compatible with database and web applications |
NAS servers communicate vs. NFS (Network File System) and CIFS (Common Internet File System). NAS supports other storage protocols, such as FTP (File Transfer Protocol) or AppleTalk. NAS enables multiple users to share the same storage space simultaneously. NAS allows users to share data across the network with significant performance improvements. | |
Benefits of NAS

Benefits of Disk-based Backup
Use snapshot copies to make point-in-time copies of your logical volumes and shares. The snapshot image can then be used for both consistent and temporary backup. Snapshot Copy ensures users have uninterrupted and complete access to their data
Benefits of Snapshot Copy
Replication is the process of creating identical replicas of data on two separate storage systems. There are two types of replication: Volume Replication and Data Replication.
Volume Replication is a process of copying a logical volume from one location to another
With volume replication data is copied synchronously. Data replication enables asynchronous file and folder copy from one storage system to another.
Benefits of Replication
A storage and network protection strategy that ensures protection of data in case of a natural or man-made disaster
Benefits of Disaster Recovery
Automatic failover is a key requirement in many business critical environments. In the event of a failure or scheduled maintenance of the primary server the software automatically switches operations over to the secondary storage server. The data is copied in real-time and every change is immediately mirrored on the secondary storage server.
