Storage

Software defined storage (SDS) creates a virtualized network of storage resources by separating the control and management software from the underlying hardware infrastructure. This can be used to create storage networks that may tie together large pools of storage resources that can appear as one virtual entity.

A form of software-defined everything (SDx), storage virtualization is analogous to software-defined networking (SDN) for storage technology. Often storage resources are kept on separate networks, known as storage area networks (SANs), requiring different management software and platforms.
