FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a protocol used to transfer files over the internet. It does not directly manage data storage, rather it allows for the transfer of files between two different storage locations.
FTP can be used to manage data storage by allowing users with the necessary permissions to upload or download files to and from a server. The server can be used to store data files, website files, or any other files that need to be accessed remotely. The server can also be configured to restrict access to specific users or groups to ensure the security of the stored data.
FTP can also be configured to allow for automatic backups or scheduled transfers of files to another storage location, providing an additional layer of redundancy and data protection.
Overall, FTP is a useful tool for managing data storage by enabling the secure and efficient transfer of files between different storage locations.
