A SAN is a high-speed, high-bandwidth storage network that logically connects storage to servers. SAN topologies (switched fabric or arbitrated loops) extend the concepts offered by traditional server/storage connections and deliver more flexibility, availability, integrated management and performance. SANs are the first IT solutions to offer the assurance that all systems can access any information in the enterprise at any time.

In the connected world of 21st century business, a manageable, secure network isnt optional - its a core requirement of every serious organisations infrastructure. For every internet, intranet and extranet the possibility of security lapses exists. ProCurve switches feature built-in security capabilities for safe, e-commerce communications throughout the network. Sensitive information can be shielded and protected for complete peace of mind. Plus with ProCurve policy-based management, the administration of security procedures is simpler than ever. Embedded intelligence, which examines the network, finds problems, automatically fixes what it can, and informs the IT administrator of problems that require their attention, is typical of HPs proactive approach to networking.
