Review of the Hybrid Storage System
Authors: ,
Abstract: Hybrid storage system (HSS) comprises a hierarchy of storage devices that include (from to top to bottom) solid state drive, hard disk drive, and magnetic tape. These storage devices differ from one another in their performance capabilities, particularly in their speed performance, which increases when moving in the hierarchy from the bottom upwards. HSS delivers high performance to business-critical applications while incorporating large-capacity disks to address substantially large data storage repositories. This study discusses a hybrid storage system and presents its importance in various applications. Moreover, this research compares the hybrid storage system levels and presents the importance of migration data in this system.
