English term or phrase: fabric switches
Virtualization is making data management easier by delivering a consistent way to manage the storage requirements of today's enterprise application, regardless of vendor preference or storage location. The virtualization tools, when properly deployed, can create pools of storage that deliver real-time access to storage as demands grow, all while utilizing the same back-end storage resources as before. The simplest example of this virtualization technology is a storage array that concatenates multiple disks together to make a large LUN that is exported to a host. The host sees the LUN as a single SCSI device and can reference it as a larger pool of storage than a single disk. Another example is a host-based volume manager that can string together disparate storage resources into a single dynamic disk. These host-based volume managers may dynamically grow the underlying volume that a disk lives on online without interruption to the host application. Several companies have announced virtualization solutions that are embedded in the fabric switches themselves, providing a pooling capability regardless of storage resource or host-based volume manager. When combined, these varied storage virtualization tools can deliver solutions to the issues of many enterprise customers.
何处可以查到fabric switches的定义和译名?
我一直把它译成“结构交换机”(网上还有“架构交换机”和“光纤交换机”这两种译法)。但隐约觉得不妥。
