Method, system, and apparatus for enterprise wide storage and retrieval of large amounts of data

A system for collecting, storing, and analyzing information, comprising:

• a processor operable to execute an analysis software stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium;
• a first mobile data storage unit provisioned at a first location, the provisioning comprising installation of the analysis software;
• and
• a plurality of mobile data storage units connected with the first data storage units in a first peer-to-peer network;
• wherein the first mobile data storage unit is transported to an area of operations at a second location;
• the analysis software allows the first mobile data storage unit to be identified to the plurality of mobile data storage units in the peer-to-peer network and allows the first mobile data storage unit and the plurality of mobile data storage units to have access to information in the other mobile data storage units in the peer-to-peer network;
• information collected in the area of operations is transmitted to the first mobile data storage unit;
• and
• the transmitted information is sorted and stored in the first mobile data storage unit;
• the first mobile data storage unit is disconnected from the first peer-to-peer network;
• the first mobile data storage unit is transported to a third location wherein a second
• peer-to-peer network is located;
• the first mobile data storage unit is re-provisioned with updates to the analysis software;
• the first mobile data storage unit is authenticated to be present on the second peer-to-peer network;
• and wherein the re-provisioned software allows the mobile data storage units in the second peer-to-peer network to become aware of the newly added mobile data storage unit and to have access to information in the mobile storage units in the second peer-to-peer network.
