A Study of Cloud Storage challenges
Basant Kumar (Uttaranchal University)
Abstract
Cloud computing has been observed as the most exclusively distinct and influencing trendy expression during recent years when it comes in relation to computer evolution. As far as I have observed the name of this branch „Cloud‟ is taken so, because it shares a resemblance to the natural clouds present in the sky. We live on the earth‟s surface and for us; the clouds which are present in the troposphere behave in the same manner irrespective of the position of the end-users, which here refers to us. The end-users can see and use rainwater when all recommended conditions are satisfied. The primary thought behind the cloud is that the data can be sent or retrieved over the web without having any interference due to the complex background procedures of doing so which leads to global access over data in the future. By using cloud-based storage, the respective end-users can store data on multiple third-party or privately hosted servers which are unknown to the end-users, and only developers of cloud solutions know the physical location of the stored data. In most cases, high-performance storage drives are used for quick data transfer. In today‟s fast-paced and highly technical world, we are witnessing the increase in the size of the data each and every day, the need to handle, manage and store the data has raised the bars and has also been identified as the main problem faced by the end-users to store different files which can be accessed securely through the web interface. In this paper I have given an attempt to specify the methods that are being used for storing data in cloud storage.
