A sensor is a device that measures a physical quantity and converts it into a signal which can be read by an observer or by an instrument. The rapid advancement in computing has enabled the development of low cost wireless sensor networks (WSNs), and making WSNs one of the most important research areas. These are wireless ad-hoc network that connect deeply embedded sensors, actuators, and processors. This combination of wireless and data networking will result in a new form of computational paradigm which is more communication centric than any other computer network seen before. In the past few years, much research effort has been put forth to instrument the physical world with a large number of networked sensor nodes that are collaborating while self-configuring. Wireless sensor networks produce a large amount of data that needs to be processed, delivered, and assessed according to the application objectives. Data storage has become an important issue in sensor networks as a large amount of collected data need to be archived for future information retrieval. This paper review Sensor data Storages to find best of them and use it to control our physical world better.
