Storage Protocol Choices & Storage Best Practices for VMware ESX
Just found a great article for ESX Storage Best Practices from Cisco, definitely worth reading for understanding how storage really works in VMware vSphere
At the end, it also mentioned the future: VAAI, well the paper was written in 2009 and one year after, we are already using it in our Equallogic SAN.
There is even a section called “Day After Tomorrow”, future technologies like vMotion between Datacenters, DRS and DPM for storage, etc.
