SANs defined  A SAN consists of 2 tiers…(based on Gartner) –The Plumbing Tier  Provides connectivity between nodes in a network fashion and transports device-oriented commands and status –The Application Tier  Value-added services that operate over the first tier –eg. Backup operations, data replication, zoning, disk pooling / virtualization
