The amount of organization data is going to get bigger as it needs continuing to accumulate.

One of the most important problems is inability to scale the growing storage requirement. Both providing too much and too little capacity use much money, resources and time; but a good storage solution takes into account present and future requirements and assuring cost and space efficiency.

For example pooled storage makes it easier to provision, manage, backup & grow. Also Storage Area Network (SAN) is one of the products which is used in the storage solutions. It's a high-speed sub network which makes storage devices available to all servers through a LAN/WAN. Particularly it supports disk mirroring, backup and restore, archival  and retrieval of archived data, data migration from one storage device to another and the sharing of data among different servers in a network.
