Storage Networking , Part 1 eBook: A storage network is any network that's designed to transport block-level storage protocols. But understanding the ins and outs of networked storage takes you deep into several of protocols. This guide covers SANs, Fibre Channels, Disk Arrays, Fabric, and IP Storage.
»Storage Networking 2, Configuration and Planning eBook: Picking up where Part 1 left off, Part 2 of our look at storage networking examines configurations for SAN-attached servers and disk arrays, and also includes a look at the future of IP storage.
»Storage Management Costs in the Enterprise: A Comparison of Mid-Range Array Solutions Whitepaper:
Many factors contribute to the ownership cost for enterprise storage. These include (but are not limited to): physical capacity relative to physical space requirements, performance capacity for data transfer and system reaction time, software maintenance and updates, expandability and flexibility, and much more.
»Storage Is Changing Fast Be Ready or Be Left Behind PDF: The storage landscape is headed for dramatic change, thanks to new technologies like Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), pNFS, object-based storage and SAS that will affect everything from NAS and SANs to disk drives. Get the knowledge you need to make the most of your storage environment, now and in the future.

This is just a basic tutorial on how to display data in a mySQL database in
flash quickly and easily. You can develop this code further to create dynamic
Flash movies that feed off a mySQL database. In this example I'm using an eCard
project I'm working on. The code will connect to my database to get the card
information (the to, from, and message) and display this data in the flash
movie. Also note that you should have dynamic text fields named as each of the variables your want to display in your flash movie
The Flash Code:
#include "PHPObject.as"
tmp = new PHPObject();
tmp.setDefaultGatewayKey("secret"); // CHANGE THIS TO WHATEVER SECRET KEY
YOU SET IN Gateway.php
tmp.setDefaultGatewayUrl("http://www.yourdomain.com/pathto/Gateway.php");
// CHANGE THIS TO WHERE YOU PLACE Gateway.php
delete tmp;
myFoo = new PHPObject("cards"); // declare a new object and link it to a
remote PHP class
// set up responder
myFoo.getcard_onResult = function(result) {
So what we're doing is setting up the Gateway to the PHP file first. Then we
set up the code in Flash to get the array PHP will return to us and to put each
part of the array into seperate input text boxes on in the flash movie. The
invoke method starts the process. It calls the php file "cards.php" as specified
in the PHPObject function. Now we have to write the PHP to get the database info
and return it to flash.
The PHP Code (cards.php):
<?
class cards {
function getcard($getcard) {
$db_name = "yourdbname";
$connection = @mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password")
or die("Cound not connect to database");
mysql_select_db($db_name, $connection) or die("Count not select
database");
$query = "SELECT * FROM ecards WHERE sid LIKE '$getcard'";
$q_result = mysql_query($query);
return mysql_fetch_row($q_result);
}
}
?>
This is just some basic PHP code to connect to a mySQL database and return
the results. The getcard() function requires a parameter in this example. This
parameter tells mySQL which record it wants to pull. In this case it's the id of
the card. Once the SQL query has been run, we just send the row as an array and
let flash parse it. You can manipulate the data however you want in the PHP,
then just have Flash display it.
