Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Fundamentals
Storage
One of the key components when you plan and deploy Microsoft Windows Server is storage. Most organizations require lots of storage because users and applications are constantly working with and creating data.
As a Microsoft Windows Server System Administrator you must be able to:
- Identify and decide on the type of storage your organization needs
- Manage disks, volumes, and file systems
- Use BitLocker to secure volumes
- Encrypt data with Encrypted File System (EFS)
Furthermore, optimizing Microsoft Windows Server storage is key to keeping pace with your organization’s ever increasing data needs. Once you have initially configured your Microsoft Windows Server storage you will want to take advantage of three key features: iSCSI Storage, Storage Spaces and Data Deduplication.
iSCSI is a protocol that supports remote access to SCSI-based storage devices over a TCP/IP network. It provides and easy to use alternative to Storage Area Networks (SANs) and can use existing infrastructure.
Storage Spaces lets you group physical disks together and present them as a single logical disk. This makes it easy to manage and dynamically allocate storage.
Data Deduplication is a service that identifies and removes duplications within data. The goal of Data Deduplication is to maximize the use of disk space.
Go beyond simple storage strategies and take control of your organization’s storage needs!
