Techopedia Explains Volume
As the most critical component of the 3 V’s framework, volume defines the data infrastructure capability of an organization’s storage, management and delivery of data to end users and applications. Volume focuses on planning current and future storage capacity – particularly as it relates to velocity – but also in reaping the optimal benefits of effectively utilizing a current storage infrastructure.
Velocity calls for building a storage infrastructure that does the following:
- Implements tiered storage resources
- Removes data duplication for efficient storage utilization
- Eliminates unused or uncritical data
- Data backup mechanism to provide alternative failover mechanism
