Overview.

Internet SCSI (iSCSI) is rapidly becoming a convergent data center technology for disparate types of networking. The Broadcom iSCSI Offload Engine technology available in 9th- and 10th-generation Dell PowerEdge servers can free server resources to help increase performance and throughput, enabling organizations to maximize the benefits of iSCSI in their environments.

Increasing storage and networking demands have made Internet SCSI (iSCSI) technology a key component of enterprise IT infrastructures. Built on the familiar TCP/IP protocol, iSCSI helps increase storage flexibility by allowing access to content on a server through an Ethernet fabric.

As a result, servers can either converge data applications and storage on the same network to help lower total cost of ownership, or dedicate one network for data applications and another for storage.

In addition, by enabling an OS to be initialized across a storage area network and accessed over an IP network, multiple client systems can access the same available storage space over the network while allowing individual clients to access a different storage space over the same network.
