My Department owns and operates 52 servers across two separate networks. These servers are configured so as to provide resilience and failover in case of equipment failure. The table below outlines the actual capacity, in gigabytes, of each server, some of which hold a 'mirror' of the data on other critical servers.

The following section details the servers owned or leased by the state agencies under the aegis of my Department

CSO

The CSO has 104 computer servers with an average capacity of 150 gigabytes per server: and three Storage Area Networks (SANs) with a total capacity of 65 terabytes.
