Network Attached Storage (NAS) describes the complete storage system designed for traditional data network attachment. The NAS servers mainly support CIFS (Common-Internet-File-System) and NFS (Network-File-System).

NAS unit is a self contained computer in a network with the task of offering file based data storage services to other network devices where the storage devices can be reached over the computer network rather than through a direct computer.

NAS is the hard disk storage system which includes the RAID configuration which has got its own LAN IP address and hence not attached to department computers and forwarding the applications to network workstation users. NAS consists of software for file locations configurations and mappings to network attached devices.

The devices are accessed directly because they have IP addresses and do not compete for resources. Also with different servers containing different operating systems, there is the centralization of backup, management and storage which provides a seamless flow of resources through a network.

Using Google Phonebook

Google’s phonebook can find US public business and residential numbers, and it can find them with less information than you need to look through the paper phonebook. Google’s phonebook can only find public phone numbers. It can’t find cell numbers. All you have to do is:

1. Enter the phone number in the search bar of Google’s home page, including the area code. Verify the number. Hit the “Search” button.

2. Wait for the search result. Look for the name and address that is associated to the phone number to be shown on the screen.

3. When Google finds the name and address matching a phone number, it will also give you a handy link to Google Maps to get driving directions to that address.

This might look like a tool designed for stalkers, but Google is just putting together information already available from local phone directories and Internet phonebook searches. If you don’t want Google to list your name and number, you can search for your own phone number and click on the “Request to have your name removed from this list” link in the search results.

It can be voice, fax or any such thing. The idea is to refrain from Public Switched Telephone Network and use Internet instead. This is done by altering the analog codes into digital ones and then modifying or translating them into an Internet Protocol.

Today, VoIP is largely implanted via H.323, IMS, SIP, and RTP. Broadband Internet Access Services have let us indulge in mass-usage of Voice over Internet protocol.

The services can be bestowed via an analog provider fixed between a telephone jack and an IP network; Wi-Fi’s that won’t require a computer; and a softphone that can seamlessly run without dedicated hardware. For the purpose of connecting switching stations and aligning telephone network providers, VoIP is turning out to be a rousing mantra of present-day technology.
