Big Data

Information techniques of 21th century constantly improve people's life,
whilst big data also marks a fast and furious information blast. Data-
cen-ters grow terabits of data daily, so the demand for mega storage
space is gradually increasing. In between, on account of the fact that the
price of hard drive disk has been lowered, a new terminology as cold
storage has been defined, meaning that people no longer store the cold
data (data not often used) on tape devices, which, instead, is replaced by
the low-end hard drive disk directly. In virtualization realm, Microsoft
also submitted the new concept: CiB (Cluster-in-a-box), which means a
system being self-sufficient in just one box (server), where the storage
space keeps adequate, and more than two servers are mutually sup-
port-ing each other for data backup and recovery in Windows Server
operat-ing system.

Big data drives the needs of storage, where the market generally uses
modular fabrics to construct the equipment specifically employed for
one single function, and demanding higher product reliability, security,
and durability.
