Evolution and Exploration of Storage for Cloud Computing. Storage Technology

      Аннотация: Storage is a key element in an enterprise IT infrastructure. Large organizations typically have huge storage demands, which they try to address by various means. In fact, an organization’s worth could be directly related to the bits & bytes it has on its disks! Therefore, carefully addressing the storage requirements remains a very important task for any enterprise. Cloud storage works through data center virtualization, providing end users and applications with a virtual storage architecture that is scalable according to application requirements. In general, cloud storage operates through a web-based API that is remotely implemented through its interaction with the client application's in-house cloud storage infrastructure for input/output (I/O) and read/write (R/W) operations.
