Advanced data storage solutions: AI-Powered Architectures for Modern Enterprise Needs

Govindarajan, Gopinath (2025) Advanced data storage solutions: AI-Powered Architectures for Modern Enterprise Needs. World Journal of Advanced Engineering Technology and Sciences, 15 (1). 072-080. ISSN 2582-8266

This article presents a comprehensive analysis of emerging artificial intelligence applications in enterprise data storage architectures, examining how AI-driven innovations are transforming traditional storage paradigms to address contemporary challenges of scale, performance, and cost optimization. The article explores multiple dimensions of this evolution: architectural frameworks for multi-cloud integration that seamlessly bridge disparate environments; blockchain-enhanced security models that provide immutable audit capabilities for regulated industries; machine learning approaches that enable intelligent data tiering based on predicted access patterns; edge computing solutions that minimize latency for IoT applications; and self-optimizing systems that dynamically tune storage parameters in response to changing workloads. The article's findings demonstrate that AI-powered storage architectures deliver significant improvements in operational efficiency, cost reduction, and performance optimization compared to traditional static configurations. The article further evaluates implementation considerations, quantify performance gains in real-world deployments, and identify emerging research directions including quantum-inspired algorithms and serverless paradigms. This article provides enterprise architects and technology leaders with actionable insights for developing storage strategies that leverage artificial intelligence to create adaptive, intelligent infrastructure aligned with evolving business requirements.
