iSCSI (Internet Small Computer Systems Interface)

iSCSI (Internet Small Computer Systems Interface) is a technology that allows computers to connect to and use storage devices (like hard drives) over a standard network, such as the internet or an intranet. It enables remote storage to appear as if it’s directly connected to a computer, facilitating data sharing and centralized storage management. iSCSI sends data using familiar network protocols, making it cost-effective and easy to integrate with existing network infrastructure. This setup is commonly used in data centers and enterprise environments for efficient, flexible, and scalable storage solutions.
