Microsoft Exchange presents a unique storage challenge to IT management. The ever – increasing volume of email, and the need to store messages for long term presents a growing demand for storage. The traditional approach – a powerful server directly connected to large storage – is insufficient. A single-server configuration with DAS storage exposes the entire server as single point of failure. Microsoft recommends a Storage Area Network for the storage of Exchange files for security, better performance and increased reliability. Learn how an IP SAN can solve Exchange storage issues.
