SAN Storage Area Network is the name given to high-speed network storage devices. Here, storage devices are used in direct connection with servers.
Provides block-level storage. SAN devices are directly accessible by applications (virtualization, etc.) running on all servers in the network.
Many SAN devices use fiber optic cabling technology or other network protocols (iSCSI/Fiber etc) to be reached over longer distances.
