Abstract
The world is changing daily and many companies are looking to develop ways to save on production and hardware. The idea of having a system that allows a company to store files away from the main server will help a company to store more and free space on the main server. As companies are using more and more technology, the hardware (servers and website space) and Infrastructure is having problems with available space to help free up hard drives and server space. Many computer owners have issues with trying to find a place to store files and other media. The idea is to allow one to place a file in a central location away from the main computer, or cloud storage. A main server that is big enough to route files in it for storage can help a computer and website run faster. Just as an external hard drive can store data on it away from a computer to free up the main hard drive can help a computer run faster. Cloud storage operates in the same concept, instead of having a hard drive, there is a huge server with a lot of storage. In this paper, the company that I have chosen has issues with server space and need a newer solution to developing a better service to the company and its production facilities. I will explain what it will take to boost service speed and help the company to ship products out faster with just a solution in server space.
