What is tertiary memory?

Answer 1

Tertiary storage

Tertiary storage is a system where a robotic arm will "mount" (connect) or "dismount" off-line mass storage media (see the previous item) according to the computer operating system's demands. Tertiary storage is used in the realms of enterprise storage and scientific computing on large computer systems and business computer networks, and is something a typical personal computer user never sees firsthand.

Database storage is a system where information in computers is stored in large databases, data banks, data warehouses, or data vaults. It involves packing and storing large amounts of storage devices throughout a series of shelves in a room, usually an office, all linked together. The information in database storage systems can be accessed by a supercomputer, mainframe computer, or personal computer. Databases, data banks, and data warehouses, etc, can only be accessed by authorized users.
