Storage Consolidation --Centralizing and sharing storage resources amongst numerous servers; fundamentally the most affective storage management strategy. Enabled by storage networking, Storage IT Solutions consolidation strategies assure the storage environment is well designed and inherently manageable.

The Benefits of Storage Consolidation are:
  - Fully utilize all available storage space
  - Increased scalability
  - Re-allocation of data without disruption of the network
  - A single subsystem can support numerous heterogeneous servers and applications
  - Dramatically lowers TCO and increases ROI

Benefits of Storage Area Networks ( SAN ) :
  - Response time for data significantly improved
  - Security and encryption easily integrated
  - Redundancy lowers failures and downtime
  - Scale to meet the growing demand for storage
  - Centralized data
Benefits of Network Attached Storage ( NAS ):
  - Multi-platform file sharing
  - High reliability
  - Compatibility with existing networks
  - Low cost solution
  - Easy implementations
