We are now living in the era of big data. The large volume of data raises a lot of issues related to data storage and management, stimulating the emergence of Cloud storage. Unlike traditional storage systems such as SAN (Storage Area Network) and NAS (Network Attached Storage), Cloud storage is delivered over a network and has such features as easy to scale and easy to manage. With Cloud storage shielding complex technical details such as storage capacity, data location, data availability, reliability and security, users can then concentrate on their business rather than IT (Information Technology) system maintenance. However, it is not an easy task to develop a Cloud storage system because multiple factors are involved. In this chapter, the authors show their experience in the design and implementation of a Cloud storage system. They detail its key components, namely the distributed file system Carrier and the data sharing service Corsair. A case study is also given on its application at Tsinghua University.

The goal of this study was to create the Local Area Network Based Archiving System, a cross-platform development system for electronic information storage, security, preservation, and retention. The system incorporates capabilities such as data storage for long-term preservation and retrieval, file searching and retrieval, security features such as user account information system and account access privilege levels, and an email-like messaging system. The researchers developed the Local Area Network Based Archiving System using the Agile Software Development Methodology to keep up with the stakeholders' ever-changing needs. After each iteration of the work cycle, this methodology employs a process of frequent feedback. Features are added or refined in each iteration to ensure that the study meets its goals and expectations. The developed system received an overall average weighted mean of 4.53 in the evaluation summary, which is considered excellent. The strongest point of the system, according to the respondents' responses, was its content, which received the highest average mean among the five major categories in the system evaluation. The system's mobile responsiveness was a huge plus, as it considerably aided accessibility. The system should also be deployed, according to the respondents, because it will provide a powerful answer to the ongoing challenges with storing, managing, securing, and retrieving electronic files. As a result, the researchers concluded that a Local Area Network Based Archiving System is required for the efficient operation of an electronic  file storage system. Having centralized electronic file storage and retrieval system not only saves time and money in the long run but also allows for disaster recovery and business continuity.

A data center has hundreds of servers and storage devices running on virtual machines that can be deployed and migrated over servers as per the requirement. If each server uses local storage, migration of this storage and restoration is mandatory. An attempt to organize and track storage throughout the data center is quite tedious. Using a dedicated storage system like a storage array, it possible to collectively monitor and manage such a network. A storage area network is essentially a network dedicated to storage devices. A storage area network can interconnect devices in all its layers, therefore improving storage availability. Interconnecting all elements in SAN also reduces the chances of a single point of failure. Using the storage devices collectively improves their utilization. SAN offers to manage and maintain all devices in the network. Although SAN is beneficial, it has drawbacks when configuring, monitoring, and managing components in a large-scale network. This paper consolidates the problems associated with SAN and offers possible solutions to overcome them.

Cloud storage system is to provides facilitative file storage and sharing services for distributed clients.The cloud storage preserve the privacy of data holders by proposing a scheme to manage encrypted data storage with deduplication. This process can flexibly support data sharing with deduplication even when the data holder is offline, and it does not intrude the privacy of data holders. It is an effective approach to verify data ownership and check duplicate storage with secure challenge and big data support. We integrate cloud data deduplication with data access control in a simple way, thus reconciling data deduplication and encryption.We prove the security and assess the performance through analysis and simulation. The results show its efficiency, effectiveness and applicability.In this proposed system the upload data will be stored on the cloud based on date.This means that it has to be available to the data holder who need it when they need it. The web log record represents whether the keyword is repeated or not. Records with only repeated search data are retained in primary storage in cloud. All the other records are stored in temporary storage server. This step reduces the size of the web log thereby avoids the burden on the memory and speeds up the analysis.

The CERN IT Storage group operates multiple distributed storage systems to support all CERN data storage requirements: the physics data generated by LHC and non-LHC experiments; object and file storage for infrastructure services; block storage for the CERN cloud system; filesystems for general use and specialized HPC clusters; content distribution filesystem for software distribution and condition databases; and sync&share cloud storage for end-user files. The total integrated capacity of these systems exceeds 0.6 Exabyte. Large-scale experiment data taking has been supported by EOS and CASTOR for the last 10+ years. Particular highlights for 2018 include the special HeavyIon run which was the last part of the LHC Run2 Programme: the IT storage systems sustained over 10GB/s to flawlessly collect and archive more than 13 PB of data in a single month. While the tape archival continues to be handled by CASTOR, the effort to migrate the current experiment workflows to the new CERN Tape Archive system (CTA) is underway. Ceph infrastructure has operated for more than 5 years to provide block storage to CERN IT private OpenStack cloud, a shared filesystem (CephFS) to HPC clusters and NFS storage to replace commercial Filers. S3 service was introduced in 2018, following increased user requirements for S3-compatible object storage from physics experiments and IT use-cases. Since its introduction in 2014N, CERNBox has become a ubiquitous cloud storage interface for all CERN user groups: physicists, engineers and administration. CERNBox provides easy access to multi-petabyte data stores from a multitude of mobile and desktop devices and all mainstream, modern operating systems (Linux, Windows, macOS, Android, iOS). CERNBox provides synchronized storage for end-user’s devices as well as easy sharing for individual users and e-groups. CERNBox has also become a storage platform to host online applications to process the data such as SWAN (Service for Web-based Analysis) as well as file editors such as Collabora Online, Only Office, Draw.IO and more. An increasing number of online applications in the Windows infrastructure uses CIFS/SMB access to CERNBox files. CVMFS provides software repositories for all experiments across the WLCG infrastructure and has recently been optimized to efficiently handle nightlybuilds. While AFS continues to provide general-purpose filesystem for internal CERN users, especially as $HOME login area on central computing infrastructure, the migration of project and web spaces has significantly advanced. In this paper, we report on the experiences from the last year of LHC RUN2 data taking and evolution of our services in the past year.. We will highlight upcoming changes and future improvements and challenges.
