In current social networking world, organizations are demanding high-speed security for client data such as images, audio video files even huge databases. Also no flexibility to connect and share remote devices and servers reduces the performance of service given by organization. To overcome this issues Storage Area Network (SAN) was introduced which is a dedicated storage network that carries I/O traffic only between servers and storage devices. The paper describes requirement of SAN in real world by implementing a SAN using Openfiler, Based on seven cases SAN’s performance analysis done with help of Iometer tool and SAN’s importance in clustered Database.
