Encyclopedia
The Fabric Application Interface Standard or FAIS is a common application programming interface
framework for implementing storage applications in a storage networking environment. FAIS is defined by Technical Committee T11 of the International Committee for Information Technology Standards.
It provides a high-speed, highly reliable device for performing fabric-based
services throughout heterogeneous data center
environments.
