Storage Servers
Storage Servers are used to store the data and applications of an organization. They enable storage and access to a small and large amount of data over a shared network or via the internet. A storage server is usually less powerful than a standard server. They serve as storehouses for data and applications repositories. The storage servers may be in situ or ex-situ, i.e. they may be located inside the network premises of the organization or may be maintained virtually in a cloud network. Some organizations also outsource their storage server requirements to external vendors, to reduce capital expenditures.
