1. A method for storage area network (SAN) establishment, comprising: providing a predefined template via a computing system, said predefined template configured for inputting data associated with a SAN; utilizing the predefined template by a first tool to obtain a configuration for a SAN, including component data, when a SAN configuration is input for validation, the first tool querying a database of SAN data for validation of the SAN configuration input for validation; utilizing the predefined template by a second tool configured for generating a SAN configuration, when component data is input to the predefined template, the second tool accessing the database to generate the SAN configuration; accessing a database including SAN data; generating a recommended optimized animated configuration of a valid SAN configuration to the predefined template from the accessed database based on at least one of the SAN configuration input for validation or the input component data, the recommended optimized animated configuration of a valid SAN configuration being automatically generated by the system in response to a determination that a throughput of the system would increase by a predetermined factor due to component replacement or component reconfiguration, the generating of the recommended optimized animated configuration of the valid SAN configuration further including outputting the recommended optimized animated configuration to a configuration sketch portion of the predefined template.
