Modern Data Storage Technologies in the Context of Industry 4.0

Existing and currently widely used data storage technologies are considered. It is noted that the growth in the volume of digital information resources at an astronomical pace has led to the rapid development of technologies for their creation, storage, and access to them. In the context of Industry 4.0, the use of digital technologies to create intelligent and interconnected production and data processing processes is of particular importance. Blockchain technology and cloud technologies have become integral components of modern digital transformation. Taking into account the current state of data storage and blockchain technologies, network capabilities, enterprise needs and other factors, the possibilities of selecting and using storage tools and technologies, principles of joint implementation and application of different technologies, as well as modern virtualization approaches and blockchain technology for solving distributed data storage issues have been explored.
