What is Tiered Storage

Tiered Storage refers to storage categorized by price, performance, reliability or similar characteristics. Tiered storage allows administrators to use low-cost storage for data that is not critical and more expensive storage for vital data. Storage monitoring tools allow administrators to track the amount of data being maintained in each tiered storage level.
