Security concerns in Cloud storage

[Kallol]

Hi all,

Despite the cloud of its low-cost and flexible to entice users, not a wealth of one hundred users in the use of real-time data storage cloud storage service. Cloud is a catalyst for change, rather than a technology, therefore, it is anticipated that cloud will bring people to the widespread adoption of virtualization. While we are talking about the user has a great interest in cloud storage, but the actual use is still not widespread. I want to know that how to make better use of cloud storage services? Please inform.

If you want to host business data to Amazon's storage service, then you would need a mechanism to ensure that a copy be able to copy the data to migrate back to his data center. Fear of vendor data to "lock in" Another concern is the people. Each storage service providers have their own proprietary application programming interfaces. In some cases, users will also need the data sets related to metadata definitions, such as life long information or security parameters. If the storage service provider fails or shut down suddenly, then the lack of a common application programming interface will give users a lot of trouble. Of course, if you are in a start-up period of these are possible to occur. Check and reply.

You can use the public key encryption, but in the transmission data to the cloud of data prior to or chooses to self-encryption. Since you can only stored in the two copies of the services used during the Zetta, so he is not worried about what if Zetta fault if the data can be copied back to the local data centers. If the communication channels is too small, then large amounts of data from the cloud storage vendors to migrate back there may indeed be unrealistic. If you can only 1MB or 2MB per second transmission, it may take months or even years of time to migrate your data back. The special to establish a connection, for the timely transmission of data, Zetta service costs, the need to increase by 25%. Check and reply.

Cloud Storage offers some attractive advantages. It is the pay-mode does not require infrastructure investment and does not require the storage requirements for the future purchase of surplus equipment. You can dynamically expand storage devices, and only use part of your pay. But you have to the data stored in the cloud and provide cloud service providers expressed sufficient confidence. Today, very few medium-sized and large enterprises are willing to trust in cloud, although some are using cloud services. People on the cloud storage has a very high interest in. But he added that today there is no wealth a hundred users in the use of real-time data storage cloud storage service. Check and reply.

In addition to a few heavyweights with cloud storage outside, such as Amazon.com, a simple storage service (S3), and Verizon Communications Inc. on-line backup and recovery services, most of the use of the product from a small start-ups. "Cloud storage is applicable to low-priority or low-level and low-touch access to types of applications, mainly based on the file, rather than block-based level. But that in him does have some users using the service from Amazon, be used as a test bed or a marketing plan for a temporary room for expansion. All the best.

The most common storage and service products is online backup and archiving applications. Storage Networks thing happens on the day things changed, some enterprises are not well managed back up off the final choice.Storage Networks original idea was to outsourcing, which provides data center using the same infrastructure services. Now, many cloud storage service using a distributed architecture, low-cost ready-made products, storage devices. Cloud storage is a very broad term, including a variety of technologies and business models. For example, some service providers to use spread-the-box products, storage devices, but others may use the traditional mid-or high-end storage architectures. This means that you had better find out what you are buying products or services. Check and reply.
