A SAN is a dedicated network that is separate from LANs and WANs whose primary purpose is the transfer of data between computer systems and storage elements.
A SAN can also be a storage system consisting of storage elements, storage devices, computer systems, and/or appliances, plus all control software, communicating over a network.
SANs create new methods of attaching storage to servers. These new methods can enable great improvements in both availability and performance. Today's SANs are used to connect shared storage arrays and tape libraries to multiple servers, and are used by clustered servers for failover.
