Description

technical field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of data storage, and in particular to a storage expansion method and a storage expansion device. Background technique

[0002] In the current scenario where a large amount of data needs to be stored, for example, in the Internet of Things system, due to the large number of devices that need to be collected, and because the server is the data center between the device and the application, it not only plays the role of data forwarding, but also needs to have The function of data storage.

[0003] When a traditional IoT system deploys a server, the storage capacity of data is designed for each server. The data storage methods include: 1. Direct Attached Storage (DAS), and ordinary personal computer (Personal Computer, PC) storage The architecture is the same, the storage device is directly connected to the internal bus of the server, and the storage device is a part of the entire server structure; 2....
