  • Building Storage-As-A-Service Businesses
    CLOUDIAN, INC. WHITE PAPER : BUILDING STORAGE-AS-A-SERVICE BUSINEssES WHITE PAPER SERVICE PROVIDERS’ GREATEST NEW GROWTH OPPORTUNITY: Building Storage-as-a-Service Businesses Today, with the availability of off-the-shelf cloud storage platforms, service providers of all sizes can now build cloud storage services with very little risk. Storage-as-a-Service (STaaS) can now be easily added to a service provider’s offerings with minimal cost, little deployment time, and significant ROI. As the enterprise market adopts the cloud model and more applications (and thus use cases) are created, STaaS stands poised to be a massive revenue generator. In addition, this same cloud storage system can reduce operating costs for the service provider by utilizing the same infrastructure for secondary storage for cloud compute systems. ACCORDING TO This whitepaper provides an overview of the market size for STaaS as well as describes the 451 RESEARCH, STORAGE AS A SERVICE technologies and ecosystem which make STaaS viable. The paper goes into detail about design REPRESENTS A LARGE best practices, using the Cloudian Community Edition—which allows a 100TB system to be AND RAPIDLY GROWING deployed with no software license fees—as an example of the value and promise of STaaS.

  • Cloud-Computing Strategies for Sustainable ICT Utilization: a Decision-Making Framework for Non-Expert Smart Building Managers
    Cloud-Computing Strategies for Sustainable ICT Utilization: A Decision-Making Framework for Non-Expert Smart Building Managers Karim Jamil Mualla (MSc) (BEng) Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Heriot-Watt University School of Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society Edinburgh, United Kingdom March, 2016 The copyright in this thesis is owned by the author. Any quotation from the thesis or use of any of the information contained in it must acknowledge this thesis as the source of the quotation or information. Abstract Virtualization of processing power, storage, and networking applications via cloud- computing allows Smart Buildings to operate heavy demand computing resources off- premises. While this approach reduces in-house costs and energy use, recent case- studies have highlighted complexities in decision-making processes associated with implementing the concept of cloud-computing. This complexity is due to the rapid evolution of these technologies without standardization of approach by those organizations offering cloud-computing provision as a commercial concern. This study defines the term Smart Building as an ICT environment where a degree of system integration is accomplished. Non-expert managers are highlighted as key users of the outcomes from this project given the diverse nature of Smart Buildings’ operational objectives. This research evaluates different ICT management methods to effectively support decisions made by non-expert clients to deploy different models of cloud-computing services in their Smart Buildings ICT environments. The objective of this study is to reduce the need for costly 3rd party ICT consultancy providers, so non-experts can focus more on their Smart Buildings’ core competencies rather than the complex, expensive, and energy consuming processes of ICT management.

  • Sharing Files Using Cloud Storage Services
    Sharing Files Using Cloud Storage Services Tiago Oliveira, Ricardo Mendes, and Alysson Bessani ftoliveira,[email protected], [email protected] Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Ci^encias,LaSIGE { Portugal Abstract. The widespread use of cloud storage in the last few years can be attributed to the existence of appealing applications such as file backup, data archival and file sharing. File sharing in particular, is im- plemented in different ways by distinct cloud storage services. These differences can appear at the offered permission types and in the form they are applied. We present a survey of these differences for several popular cloud storage services. We also show how to realize secure data sharing using these services, allowing the implementation of equivalent data sharing features in different clouds, an important requirement for secure multi-cloud systems. 1 Introduction With more people accessing their files online, an important part of file sharing today is done by taking advantage of cloud storage. This can be done through personal file synchronization services like Dropbox [4], Google Drive [6], Mi- crosoft OneDrive [13], Box [3] or Ubuntu One [18], which store users' data in the cloud. These services have been extremely successful, as attested by the success of DropBox, which has announced last April that it reached 275 million users [5]. These systems perform file sharing through dedicated application servers which are responsible for controlling access to the files as well as user groups management, data deduplication, etc. It means that the security of the file shar- ing requires trusting not only the storage service (for instance, Dropbox is built on top Amazon S3 [4]), but also these application servers.

  • 2 What Kinds of Hosting Does the Market Offer?
    2 What kinds of hosting does the market offer? If you’ve spent at least 30 minutes searching for hosting solutions, you’ll have noticed that there are different types of hosting: PaaS, shared, VPS, dedicated, colocation, cloud. The hosting market tends to segment itself in those 5-6 categories: some of them have a clear definition, while others (like cloud) have so many different meanings that I’ve had to come up with my own definition for the book. 2.1 Shared hosting On a shared hosting account you get a directory where you can put your static files (HTML, images) and an interpreter for your dynamic pages (in 98% of the cases PHP): the server where your files live is also home to hundreds, if not thousands, of similar websites. You share with the other websites the Internet 7 bandwidth to and from the datacenter, the CPU, the memory and the disk I/O of the server. This is the most limited and cheapest form of hosting available on the market. The main advantage is that you don’t have to perform any system administra- tion tasks such as configuring the OS, the network, installing applications, and so on. Few providers of shared hosting give you the ability of logging in to the actual server with SSH: you get instead a web interface called a control panel which translates clicks to actions on the system. Installing applications is often a one-click process, but you can choose only from a fixed list of the applications made available by the hosting company.

  • Online Dispute Resolution for Cloud Computing Services
    Online Dispute Resolution for Cloud Computing Services Dusko Martic Law Science and Technology Joint Degree EM program, IDT-Universitat Autonoma Barcelona, Bellaterra, Barcelona [email protected] [email protected] Abstract. The traditional concepts of practicing the law do not follow the pace of the development of the new technologies. Development of cloud computing services last decade raised new issues of applicable law, jurisdiction, access to justice, the legal nature of the disputes, consumer protection etc. At the same time, we are witnessing parallel attempts from several public bodies and international organisation to introduce (on national and global level) the legal framework for the application of the online dispute resolutions. EU parliament has recently voted in favour of the proposal on the ADR and ODR regulations for consumer disputes. These proposals in principle are focusing on e-commerce aspects of dealing with low-cost consumer/seller disputes. This research answers under which circumstances ODR mechanisms are the most suitable means to resolve conflict coming out of provision of cloud computing services in the EU and globally. Building on existing knowledge of ODR, it goes beyond and provide applicable proposals for redress in growing industry of cloud services. Keywords: Online dispute resolution, ODR, ADR, Cloud computing, cloud services 1 Introduction. Poles on usage of cloud computing services display constant increase in adoption of this technologies and steady growth of industries providing this kind of services [3][25]. Most of the leading cloud service providers are US-based and even though the nature of cloud computing is to provide service globally, contracts framing these services tend to be in the favor of providers.
