ABSTRACT:
A system and method (10) of accounting and billing for data storage on a plurality of data storage devices (20) are provided. The data storage is mapped to a number of service levels, which specify varying data access and retrieval speeds. Therefore, instead of accounting and billing for data storage solely on the basis of quantity of data, it is done on the basis of data access and retrieval speeds required by each data storage application.
