To make several storage devices in a network appear as one, storage virtualization divides the physical storage devices into different groups. Storage virtualization is frequently referred to as cloud storage. The management of data storage and storage needs to be done more frequently and with more complexity. This problem can be solved with storage virtualization by making it simpler to carry out time-saving backup, archiving, and recovery procedures. Storage virtualization combines the functionalities of storage networks while hiding their true size (SAN).
