# Central Data Storage

**Central Data Storage** (Zentrale Datenspeicherung) is a service provided by the [[universitatsrechenzentrum-urz]] that allows university users to store and edit their files on a central file server.

## Key Features
- **Device Independence:** Users can access and modify their data regardless of which end-device they are using.
- **Integration with Backup:** All data stored on these central systems is automatically covered by the [[zentrale-datensicherungsstrategie]], ensuring rapid recovery in case of data loss.

## Support
Technical issues regarding central storage are managed through the URZ ticket system (via [[groupware]]) or the URZ hotline.
