Preface
EMC is a market leader in developing tools that simplify a SAN administrators life at work. Due
to the dynamic nature of IT environments, it is imperative that businesses evolve and adapt to
proven new technologies. This not only helps businesses fully utilize their IT investment but also
helps them become leader in the very competitive market.
From medium businesses to large enterprises the storage need is almost doubled every year if
not increased by more. Therefore, businesses have big decisions to make when investing in
their SAN environment. This is certainly not to emphasize investing only in storage that may be
required in three years time. So, the question is: what should businesses' do? This is a big
question for every business these days, and EMC has been very successful over the decade to
provide the best answer with many proven solutions. One of those solutions is to be able to
migrate storage from legacy storage arrays onto new arrays without the hassle of losing data or
extensive downtime to the production environment.
SAN Copy
is one of the many solutions that EMC has put forward for SAN migration. SAN
Copy is not a new product, having been in the market for many years. Therefore it is a proven
product for high-speed data mobility, migration, and protection between EMC CLARiiON
networked storage and other storage systems that are qualified by EMC. These systems include
EMC CLARiiON, EMC Symmetrix
