Abstract :
The choice of a storage technology for video-on-demand servers depends on a variety of factors. The primary technical factor is the number of video streams that the technologies can provide, while the initial cost of the memory technologies will play a major role in the final system price. This article compares various storage technologies and storage architectures for video-on-demand servers and analyzes the relative costs and performance of each
