The 2015 SNIA Dictionary A glossary of storage networking, data, and information management terminology by the Storage Networking Industry Association The SNIA Dictionary contains terms and definitions related to storage and other information technologies, and is the storage networking industry's most comprehensive attempt to date to arrive at a common body of terminology for the technologies it represents. The terms go through a rigorous technical review and approval process by the SNIA Technical Council to assure their accuracy. The SNIA Technical Council is a group of industry technical experts elected by the members of the SNIA to guide the SNIA’s technical efforts. Their extensive individual technical backgrounds cover all aspects of storage. The reader should recognize that in this rapidly evolving field, new terminology is constantly being introduced, and common usage is shifting. The SNIA regards this dictionary as a living document, to be updated as necessary to reflect a consensus on common usage, and SNIA Dictionary v.2015.1.ENG encourages readers to treat it in that spirit. Comments and suggestions for improvement are gratefully accepted at any time, with the understanding that any submitter of comments or suggestions contributes them to SNIA; and SNIA will therefore own the rights to them. Comments and suggestions may be directed to [email protected]. Proposals for new terms or definitions, or modifications to existing ones, should be submitted on the form located at: http://www.snia.org/education/dictionary/submittal Currently the dictionary is published online and in PDF format approximately every six months--in spring and fall. A paper version is published, with sponsorship opportunities, each spring. Terms of Use The SNIA hereby grants permission for individuals to use this glossary for personal use only, and for corporations and other business entities to use this glossary for internal use only (including internal copying, distribution, and display), provided that: Any definition reproduced must be reproduced in its entirety with no alteration, and, any document, printed or electronic, in which material from this glossary (or any portion hereof) is reproduced must acknowledge the SNIA copyright on that material, and must credit the SNIA for granting permission for its reuse.

Copyright © 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 Storage Networking Industry Association, All Rights Reserved. Last updated March 13, 2015. SNIA Dictionary v.2015.1.ENG Definition Format The format for definitions has changed as of the last half of 2008. Terms are now defined as much as possible using the substitution principle, which states that a term's definition should be substitutable for the term itself in a sentence. In the case that more text is required or deemed helpful, it is contained in one or more separate paragraphs after the definition itself. This text is informative in nature, and while intended to be accurate, is not technically part of the definition itself. Deprecated Synonyms In many cases, as technology develops, companies are forced to invent new terminology to describe innovations in their products. As the technology matures and vendors attempt to compete and compare their products with others, one or two terms become the most widely used, yet a number of other terms may remain in some use which are basically synonyms for the widely used terms. This causes confusion in the marketplace. To encourage crispness and uniformity in product descriptions, this dictionary lists synonyms of this type as "Deprecated synonym for xxxx," where xxxx is the term determined to have become canonical in the industry. This is to indicate both the meaning of xxxx and guide the reader toward use of the more canonical term. In cases where a synonym is not deprecated, the SNIA does not endorse the use of one synonym over another. Definitions taken from standards documents The SNIA has a strong interest in keeping definitions harmonized across various industry groups and national and international standards bodies. Towards this end, some definitions, especially those pertaining to Fibre Channel and SCSI terms and technologies, have been quoted from the appropriate version of the INCITS standard. In all such cases, the INCITS standard is authoritative. The SNIA dictionary may include terms defined in the the following standards and draft standards: INCITS 302-1998, SCSI Parallel Interface - 2 (SPI-2) INCITS 367-2003, SCSI Parallel Interface - 5 (SPI-5) INCITS 405-2005, SCSI Block Commands - 2 (SBC-2) INCITS 431-2007, Serial Attached SCSI - 2.1 (SAS-2.1) INCITS 447-2008, SCSI Architecture Model - 4 (SAM-4) INCITS 448-2008, SCSI Enclosure Services - 2 (SES-2) INCITS 461-2010, Fibre Channel - Switch Fabric-5 (FC-SW-5) INCITS 462-2010, Fibre Channel - Backbone-5 (FC-BB-5) SNIA Dictionary v.2015.1.ENG INCITS 466-2011, Fibre Channel - Single-Byte Command Code Sets - 4 (FC-SB-4) INCITS 467-2011, SCSI Stream Commands - 3 (SSC-3) INCITS 470-2011, Fibre Channel - Framing and Signaling - 3 (FC-FS-3) INCITS 475-2011, Fibre Channel - Inter-Fabric Routing (FC-IFR) INCITS 476-2011, SAS Protocol Layer (SPL) INCITS 476/AM1-2012, SAS Protocol Layer Amendment #1 (SPL-AM1) INCITS 477-2011, Fibre Channel – Link Service - 2 (FC-LS-2) INCITS 478/AM1-2014, Serial Attach SCSI - 2.1 Amendment #1 (SAS-2.1-AM1) INCITS 479-2011, Fibre Channel - Physical Interface - 5 (FC-PI-5) INCITS 481-2012, Fibre Channel Protocol for SCSI - 4 (FCP-4) INCITS 484-2012, SCSI Media Changer Commands - 3 (SMC-3) INCITS 497-2013, Automation/Drive Interface – Commands - 3 (ADC-3) INCITS 505-2013, SAS Protocol Layer - 2 (SPL-2) INCITS 509-2014, Fibre Channel - Backbone - 6 (FC-BB-6) INCITS 514-2014, SCSI Block Commands - 3 (SBC-3) INCITS 516-2014, SCSI Stream Commands - 4 (SSC-4) INCITS 519-2014, Serial Attached SCSI - 3 (SAS-3) The SNIA wishes to thank ANSI and INCITS for their cooperation in this matter. Copies of INCITS standards may be purchased at ANSI's online store at http://webstore.ansi.org. SNIA Dictionary v.2015.1.ENG Context Hierarchy Most of the terms in this dictionary have meaning primarily in specific sub-contexts of storage networking, such as SCSI or File Systems. The following categories are used to declare the context in which a given definition in this dictionary is held to be valid. No attempt has been made to date to rigorously define these categories, so they remain a guide to understanding, not a formal system. General --Hardware ----Network -------SCSI -------iSCSI -------Fibre Channel ----Data Communication --Computer System ----Storage System --- Operating System -------Windows --Services Cloud --Management ----Data Management -------Backup -------Data Recovery -------Data Security -------Database -------File System -------Long Term Retention -------Capacity Optimization ----Storage Management --Energy --Standards --Legal The context hierarchy is a work in progress. In part, we are constrained by practice in previous editions of the dictionary.

  • Fibre Channel Storage Area Network Design Considerations for Deploying Virtualized SAP HANA
    WHITE PAPER Fibre Channel Storage Area Network Design Considerations for Deploying Virtualized SAP HANA Business Case Enterprises are striving to virtualize their mission-critical applications such as SAP HANA, Oracle Applications, and others to meet their goals in terms of performance, availability, and cost. The benefits of virtualization help organizations optimize and utilize resources, but they also include new challenges. Often, organizations that move to virtualized environments are still relying on storage systems that were not designed with the flexibility and ease of deployment and management that a virtualized data center requires. As a result, their application performance is impacted and they are forced to sacrifice efficiency and deployment time for the agility and cost advantages that virtualization offers. To compensate, organizations commonly over-provision storage to address latency and application performance, however this introduces increased costs and does not solve the need for the scalability, speed, and resilience required by virtualized environments. Enterprises need a storage and networking solution that is easy to deploy and user-friendly while also enabling the ability to support application performance and evolve as the environment scales. Solution Overview HANA Tailored Data Center Integration Scope This solution provides a reference (TDI)-Certified hardware. Definition This solution focuses on virtualized SAP architecture to deploy virtualized SAP and testing of this solution followed HANA with a TDI environment. Best HANA in a VMware environment based the process and best practices as per practices for virtualizing SAP HANA for on VMware vSphere and VMware NSX, Application Workload Guidance (formerly scale-up and scale-out configurations offering customers agility, resource VMware Validated Design).
