"Cloud storage": Visible "cloud technology"

Pachole, a beijing-based company employee, came home from work at night and opened a notebook that looked exactly like a regular folder, bringing up a report that had not been finished. Every little change she made will be stored directly on the fast disk server through the cloud storage service. "In the past to use a U disk to handcuff the file, now do not need." Pachole told reporters.

Cloud storage can be seen as a cloud technology application, like Pachole, where millions of netizens are using it to change their way of life and work. Cloud storage has therefore become a number of manufacturers to expand the service projects, in the domestic, cool plate, Jinshan, Shanda, Sina and Huawei have launched their own cloud storage services. From the application of the order of magnitude, Amazon's cloud storage service file number has exceeded 762 billion, Jinshan fast-disk users also reached 10 million, save files to solve 4PB, if these files into 2GB USB drive, you probably need to 200多万个.

For the average netizen, cloud storage is not only convenient, for example, if you put a file in the home of the mobile hard disk, in the office can not be achieved, and cloud storage does not appear this problem. Meanwhile, cloud storage also means that data backup can become more reliable, in the past people rely on CD-ROM or mobile hard disk for data backup, but both are likely to lose data because of damage, and cloud storage with multiple backup, automatic repair, remote disaster and other technologies, these are not individuals can do.

But is it really safe to put personal data such as photos and files on the Web? Jinshan Quick disk leader Yang Gang told reporters, this is also the most concerned about the problem of netizens. To get a quick disk, he says, first, the fast disk provides three copies of the user's files, ensuring that the file information is not lost. Second, the fast disk has a complete audit encryption scheme: First, in the data production and storage link high intensity encryption; second, set up the key distribution system, even if the fast disk server is stolen, can not open the file; Third, set up a strict operation mechanism, you can always monitor who used the information on the server, If the operation is not normal, the query will be processed immediately. "So we can all rest assured." ”

Today, cloud storage can be used not only on computers, each service provider also launched a different operating system for the smartphone, tablet computer clients, people through different internet terminals, can realize the storage and sharing of data, after all, for service providers, in the short term, who can solve a good user experience, who has the opportunity to seize the initiative.
