ABSTRACT:
This paper will help you understand the benefits companies achieve by implementing the Incipient Network Storage Platform (iNSP) software suite in a Cisco MDS 9000 based SAN environment.
iNSP leverages Cisco's industry leading MDS 9000 SAN switches and includes storage-related services such as non-disruptive data migration, automated storage provisioning and point-in-time copy services. iNSP runs natively on Cisco MDS 9000 Storage Services Modules (SSMs) that are designed to work with intelligent fabric applications. iNSP does not require any external appliances or servers and works with any Cisco MDS 9500 Director or 9200 fabric switch. Cisco SSMs are designed specifically to support intelligent fabric applications such as iNSP software. This provides investment protection for Cisco MDS customers as well as rapid access to storage services based applications.
With SAN storage rapidly growing in capacity and complexity each year, the need to automate SAN management tasks, increase utilization, and reduce storage and storage management costs will become a requirement in most enterprise environments.
