Web data indexing in the cloud
Jesús Camacho-Rodríguez, Dario Colazzo, Ioana Manolescu · 2013
An increasing part of the world's data is either shared through the Web or directly produced through and for Web platforms, in particular using structured formats like XML or JSON. Cloud platforms are interesting candidates to handle large data repositories, due to their elastic scaling properties. Popular commercial clouds provide a variety of sub-systems and primitives for storing data in specific formats (files, key-value pairs etc.) as well as dedicated sub-systems for running and coordinating execution within the cloud.
