#figure(

)
+- Comprised of aggregated storage space of a set of physical drives.
+- Storage space is allocated from the storage pool to logical unit number (LUN).
+- LUNs are then provisioned to consumers upon recieving their storage requests.
+- Storage of multiple drives is aggregated into a single pool.
+- LUNs of smaller amount of storage created and assigned to consumers.
+=== Pooling storage across block based storage systems
+#figure(
+ image("./assets/psabbss.png")
+)
+- More complex form of strage pooling.
+- Higher level storage pool created by pooling multiple storage pools.
+- LUNs allocated from these higher level storage pools.
+=== Pooling network bandwidth of NICs
+#figure(image("./assets/pnbn.png"))
+- VMs obtain network bandwidth from network pools.
+- VMs allocated appropriate resources to meet required service level.
== Identity pools
+#figure(image("./assets/identitypool.png"))
+_An identity pool, unlike a resource pool, specifies a range of network identifiers such as virtual network IDs and MAC addresses. These IDs are allocated from the identity pools to the elements of cloud services._\
+- May map or allocate IDs to a particular service or to a group of service.
+- If it runs out of IDs, then administrators may create an additional pool or add more identities to the existing pool.
+- 1-to-1 mapping between identity pool and service simplifies the tracking and use of IDs by a particular service.
+- Increases management complexity as multiple identity pools must be created and managed.
