lightreading.com SAN Surprise Jolts Market The Boat Rocks Yet Again A startup popped out of hiding Monday with a surprise challenge that rattled the market for storage-area networks (SANs). Nishan Systems Inc. nishansystems.com emerged from stealth mode to claim it is readying technology called storage over Internet Protocol (SoIP) that will allow SANs to run over native IP connections, without tunneling or encapsulation. If it pans out, Nishan's technique could streamline the implementation of SANs, opening up opportunities for carriers seeking to offer backup services to business customers. The news didn't help the price of SAN stocks. The first effects occurred when Ashok Kumar, an analyst with U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray Inc. piperjaffray.com, changed his recommendation on Brocade Communications Inc. (http://www.brocade.com, Nasdaq: BRCD), the market leader in SAN gear, from "buy" to "neutral," citing the Nishan announcement as a hot alternative to fibre channel SANs. Brocade stock dropped a few points quickly as trading opened Monday--only to recoup later on.
