Lead problem

The following sentence from the lead does not make sense. What should it be?

... has been optimized for use virtualized server environments NAS and iSCSI and Fibre Channel applications built around the ZFS file system.

It is better at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexenta_OS#NexentaStor, but it still does not make sense:

... is optimized for use in virtualized server environments including NAS, iSCSI, and Fibre Channel applications,
