    Standardization Boosts iSCSI Economic Potential (2Q03)

    The advent of the Internet SCSI standard holds the potential for reducing cost of ownership of SANs.

Even though SANs are relatively new technology, they have become widely used. The 2003 Computer Economics Information Systems Spending survey indicates that half of IT sites either are using or implementing SANs.
