Compares classic SAN appliances to a modular OpenStack Cinder implementation that exposes Cinder API, scheduler, volume and backup services and presents persistent volumes to Nova. Describes storage virtualization across external arrays, configurable block size and metadata-driven placement, and an automated, cloud-scale provisioning pipeline that claims near-instant volume delivery versus slow pre-provisioned SAN buys. Emphasizes open source operation, multi-protocol drivers and no vendor lock-in as the main practical differences.
