Company Overview |

LightSand is a global leader in the development and delivery of SAN connectivity products that can be used to interconnect multiple SANs regardless of physical proximity or vendor disparity. The company’s SAN extension gateways work within the data center and over MAN/WAN networks to interconnect SANs over distance using IP, SONET/SDH, DWDM, and dedicated fiber networks. These extension capabilities provide an ideal platform for deploying business continuance, disaster recovery, centralized backup, enterprise resource sharing, remote mirroring and other critical business applications. LightSand’s revolutionary AR/DAT technology provides the ability to segment large SANs into semi-autonomous regions. This feature enables organizations to partition a single large SAN fabric into multiple smaller fabrics, resulting in greater performance and manageability. Despite this partitioning, the AR/DAT technology allows the SAN regions to share specified resources in a secure way. The result is a SAN infrastructure with the manageability of a small fabric and the resource efficiency of a large fabric. The AR/DAT technology also has the ability to interconnect heterogeneous SAN fabrics, providing the ability to share SAN resources between dissimilar SAN infrastructures. LightSand is a privately held company with headquarters in Plano, Texas. |
