Estimating the cost of storing geo-environmental monitoring information at different levels of a multi-tiered storage
Sharapov R.V.
The paper estimates the cost of storing information at the different levels of a multi-tiered storage. Solid state drives (SSDs) provide the highest access speed, but they have the highest storing information cost. For this reason, SSDs can be used at the top level of storage to provide the superfast access to the operational data if a problem arises. Hard disk drives can be used as major storage media for the operational data storage. They provide high-speed access to the data and have an acceptable storage cost. Tape libraries can be used as a lower level for storing large and very large data amount. Despite the low speed of data access, they have the lowest storage cost.
Keywords: storage, multi-tiered storage, data, cost, speed.
