There is a private network with data T1 links between the sites. The problem is that there are two departments that generate large files per site daily and thay are copied or moved across the T1 daily to the main site. The files must be created locally, there is no way around that but the copying or moving slows down the applications that need to use the data T1s.<br />
<br />
If we can get the staff to store the large files on shared space on a server in the internet then the upload process will use the local internet connection instead of the data T1s.

I am new to cloud storage. I would like to create a shared folder and/or &nbsp;a mapped drive in the cloud so that staff in multiple locations may upload and download files instead of keeping them on the private network shares. &nbsp;I would prefer if the files appear to be 'local storage' to the staff. &nbsp;How do I do this?<br />

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
