Storage Virtualization White Papers and Case Studies

Storage virtualization uses virtualization concepts as a tool to enable better functionality and more advanced features within the storage system. Storage systems typically use special hardware and software along with disk drives in order to provide very fast and reliable storage for computing and data processing. Virtualized storage can then be useful as it reduces the complexity and costs of physical hardware. IDG Connect produces white papers, webcasts and spec guides for storage virtualization.
