From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ANSI INCITS 432-2007: Information technology - Fabric Application Interface Standard or FAIS is an application programming interface framework for implementing storage applications in a storage area network. FAIS is defined by Technical Committee T11 of the International Committee for Information Technology Standards.[1]

It provides a high-speed, highly reliable device for performing fabric-based services throughout heterogeneous data center environments.
