While exploring the Solace's MQ product, I came across the term SAN:

"When receiving applications are disconnected or can’t keep up with the flow of messages, their backlog is pushed to a SAN".

From: http://solacesystems.com/products/mq-messaging

I assume it's somehow relates to memory storage, but I would be happy to get a full explanation about it.

In this context SAN does indeed mean Storage Area Network. The Solace Message Routers can store messages marked as persistent on storage that is attached to the Solace appliances via a fibre channel Storage Area Network.

It isn't "Storage Area Network"? ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storage_area_network )
