The CK Daily – CK Giving Day 5, Navigate Recovery
We’ve invited each member of our team to advance our giving efforts and provide us with an organization they are passionate about to donate $500 to. Enjoy Jason Gazaway’s story below on the organization they selected.
Knowing several people and families that have been affected and devastated by the grips of drug addiction, it is so important to me personally to support Navigate Recovery and the work they do. The staff and volunteers at Navigate work to raise awareness on the issues of drug abuse and addiction, train the community on how to help, and work with individuals and families as they walk through the addiction recovery process. With drug addiction continuing to rise in our country and destroy lives, it is more important than ever to support and help organizations like Navigate Recovery.

For enterprise operations, data management is an essential operation, and it requires powerful, robust designs in order to meet demand. That is why storage area networks (SAN) are so common.
With SAN, you will often find that multiple types of connections are necessary to serve every need of the system, so you will be working with copper connections and fiber optics simultaneously.
When it comes to building connections between fiber channels and Ethernet, you have a few different options. Two of them are FCoE and FCIP.
