An Optimized Model for Files Storage Service in Cloud Environments
Haythem Yahyaoui, Samir Moalla · 2016
Cloud computing represents nowadays a revolution in the distributed systems domain because of its several services. One of the most used services in Cloud environments is file storage, which consist on uploading files to the Cloud’s data center and using them at anytime from anywhere. Due to the highest number of Cloud customers we risk to have a bad management of cloud’s data center such as losing space by files redundancy which can be provided by uploading one file for several times by only one customer or the same file by many customers. Such a problem is very frequent when we have a big number of customers. Many studies have been done in this order, researchers propose many solutions and each one has its advantages and disadvantages. In order to save space and minimize costs we propose an optimized model which consists on deleting file redundancy before the duplication step in the data centers. Experimentally, during the evaluation phase, our model will be compared with the some existing methods.
