English to Chinese: An excerpt General field: Other Detailed field: IT (Information Technology)
Source text - English Communications bandwidth and computing power are at an all-time high, and following Moore’s law, these capabilities will continue to double every 12 to 18 months.
Technology is truly evolving and many constructs that were relevant 20 years ago are museum history pieces today.
In turn, today’s cutting edge technology will be relegated to the same status 20 years from now.
For those who have participated in the growth and development of technology over the last several years, it’s easy to forget the scale and speed at which it is evolving.
There is no area where this acceleration is more apparent than with enterprise storage and it mirrors the changes in computing and bandwidth.
Spinning media and basic containers of storage have existed almost as long as the microprocessor, but things are quickly changing.
The advent of Flash-based memory technology, high-speed, low-latency networking, ubiquitous industry standards, and open-source software give us the tools to create a fresh paradigm.
The ever-increasing demands of businesses and consumers provide the need and motivation.
Current enterprise storage platforms have served their purpose; network-attached storage systems (NAS) and storage area networks (SAN) have been a crucial, simplifying step over direct-attached storage (DAS).
However, in essence, SAN and traditional NAS platforms are nothing more than an evolutionary step from DAS and, ultimately, have only extended the lifespan of DAS storage techniques.
A decade ago, SAN and NAS began to replace DAS as the standard for enterprise storage—but both of these technologies were designed nearly 20 years ago.
The basic storage container (as well as the SAN and NAS technologies that extend it) espouses a fundamental architectural flaw:
it is static and wasn’t designed for significant scalability.
Traditional data protection techniques, such as mirroring and RAID, can’t continue to scale.
The storage model of moving to larger and more powerful equipment can’t meet the growing capacity and performance requirements without incurring large costs and/or increasingly putting data at risk.
Finally, the organizational and staffing reality of managing ever-increasing storage complexity is not sustainable.
The most basic of technologies, volume, is the clearest sign that a new storage paradigm is needed.
For purely organizational purposes, there are very few reasons to constrain data to a specific location.
Assuming proper security and reliability, individuals and applications should be able to access files and folders from any geography as easily as if the data was local. As data sets grow, so do users’ needs.
Administrators can no longer afford to spend precious time moving data between containers, reorganizing workflows and shares, and dealing with more and more complexity due to the technical constraints of traditional storage.
Another significant challenge in the SAN or traditional NAS storage environment is waste.
Many storage vendors have determined that up to 50 percent of their storage is going unused.
While this helps the bottom line for storage vendors, it results in wasted power, cooling, and management.
When volumes are limited in size due to reliability concerns, technical constraints, or performance capabilities, they ultimately cause inefficiencies to occur.
These fixed sets of resources cannot be maximized to their full potential without constant tuning, oversight, and workflow changes—taking staff time away from more strategic and critical tasks in the data center.
Translation - Chinese 通信带宽和计算能力达到前所未有的水平，根据摩尔定律，这些能力将继续以每 12-18 个月翻倍的速度增强。
技术在切切实实地发生着演变，20 年前的许多重要构造如今都成了博物馆中的文物。
而今天的尖端技术在 20 年后也将遭遇同样的命运。
那些亲身经历了近几年技术发展的人，恐怕已很难记起技术演变的规模和速度了。
最能体现这种加速的当属企业存储，它真实反映了计算和带宽的变化。
存储的旋转介质和基本容器存在的时间与微处理器差不多，但这一切正在迅速改变。
基于闪存的内存技术、高速度、低延迟网络、无所不在的行业标准和开放源代码软件的出现，让我们得以创造出一种全新模式。
企业和消费者日益增长的需求成为了技术发展的需求和原动力。
当前的企业存储平台已物尽其用；网络连接存储系统 (NAS) 和存储区域网络 (SAN) 已成为在直连存储 (DAS) 基础上迈出的关键简化步骤。
但是，SAN 和传统 NAS 平台从本质上而言只是对 DAS 的延伸，究根结底，只是延长了 DAS 存储技术的生命周期而已。
十年前，SAN 和 NAS 开始取代 DAS 成为企业存储标准，但是，这两种技术的设计几乎可追溯到 20 年前。
基本存储容器（以及扩展它的 SAN 和 NAS 技术）存在主要的体系结构缺陷：
它是静态的，而且可扩展性不理想。
镜像和 RAID 等传统数据保护技术无法继续扩展。
“移至更大、功能更强的设备”这一存储模式现已做不到在满足日益增长的容量和性能要求的同时，不产生高额成本和/或防止数据安全状况不断恶化。
最终，组织和人员配备的实际情况无法跟上对不断增加的存储复杂性的管理要求。
最基础技术“卷”的出现是人们需要一种新存储模式最明显的征兆。
单从组织角度考虑，几乎没理由将数据限制在一个特定位置。
在具有适当的安全性和可靠性的前提下，个人和应用程序应该能够从任意地理位置轻松访问文件和文件夹，如同它们是本地数据一样。随着数据集增长，用户需求也会增长。
由于传统存储存在的技术限制，管理员无力再浪费宝贵的时间在容器之间移动数据、重新组织工作流和共享以及处理越来越多的复杂性。
SAN 或传统 NAS 存储环境中的另一大难题便是浪费。
许多存储供应商已确定其高达 50% 的存储将会空着不用。
这有助于提高存储供应商的最终收入，但是会造成电源、冷却和管理上的浪费。
如果卷大小因可靠性方面的顾虑、技术限制或性能功能而受到限制，它们将最终导致效率低下问题。
如果不持续进行调整、监管和工作流更改，这些固定资源集的潜能便无法得到充分发挥，从而导致相关人员无法抽身去处理数据中心内更关键更具战略性的任务。
