IT managers and professionals need more efficient ways of dealing with the massive data waves that AI, IoT devices, and many other sources have generated.Fortunately, the technology nowadays allows for network storage devices and methods to improve and develop. Innovative Network Storage TrendsHere are some of the innovative network storage trends that can possibly change the network storage industry as we know it.Software-defined storageSoftware-defined storage or SDC offers automation, flexibi …

Ethernets are gaining popularity in industrial computer-controlled systems, because they allow for a single network protocol at both the higher and lower levels of an industrial communication infrastructure. It is a traditional technology for connecting devices within a wired local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). Devices may communicate with each other utilizing a protocol, which is a set of regulations or agreed language used by all nodes on the network.Switches are the network's …

Host bus adapters (HBAs) are circuit boards and/or integrated circuits that connect servers to storage devices and perform input/output (I/O) processing. Because HBAs reduce the strain on the host processor while data storage and retrieval activities, server performance may be improved. A disk channel is an HBA and a disk subsystem linked to itHost bus adapters (HBAs) are devices that connect the host I/O bus to the computer memory system. According to this definition, as video cards are linked …

When most people think about Information Technology, they immediately think of software and software engineering. The first assumption is that IT teams are made up of individuals who know how to code, construct websites, and conduct thorough tests. This is all true, but software also requires hardware in order to function. The entire IT infrastructure comprises of the IT equipment that allows programsConsider everything from wall jacks to wall jacks as infrastructure. Having a broader perspectiv …

Network switches note or process the media access address (MAC) of devices connected to it. Devices have a code in their network interface card (NIC) that connects to an ethernet cable that then attaches to the network switch.The network switch uses MAC to identify where connected device outgoing packets are being sent from and where incoming packets are delivered.You need to understand the types of network switches to help you decide which one is right for the ever-changing requirements of …
