Remote BootAP：use iSCSI，any selected server may boot up remotely from the iSCSI RAID and start the operating system. All servers may store their data to the remote iSCSI RAID （Sol i8-is, Sol SA16-is）

Servers HA
AP : The iSCSI RAID is taken as "local disk" by the servers in the iSCSI SAN. In the other words, it's the same position as SCSI or FC RAID to the servers. Any IT application such as, Database, server HA, LAN free backup, ... are applicable to the iSCSI Storage device (RAID). |

Video Editing / BroadcastingAP : iSCSI SAN, improves or changes the workflow of video editing. By using the concept of "public storage" and "logic storage", it speeds up the document accessing, eliminates document transportation, saves the storage capacity and improves the efficiency. Any configured servers and workstations can access the iSCSI disk array. (sometimes SAN data sharing software is required)

DVR Remote Storage
AP : Digital Video Recording, mostly are storing the video recorded data into the internal IDE HDD or external SCSI disk expansion unit. Some DVR stores the video recorded data to NAS storage for longer distance. But both could not fulfill the demand of "long distance" and "low cost". iSCSI today, is the best solution for DVR. By taking the advantage of iSCSI SAN (IP SAN), the iSCSI RAID allows the high speed with block level of transfers in a very long distance. For instance, an industrial park, the whole building, the streets, ... all needs longer distance, higher speed, and continuously video recording. |

Backup
AP : The performance of tape
backup has improved much today. But the nightmare starts at the
data restoration from the tapes. It takes twice long to the backup.
With iSCSI RAID plus the backup
software which support "backup to disk" feature, the backup from the
data disk to the remote iSCSI RAID will be much faster and more
reliable. Further, if needed, the restoration is outstanding too. |
