Into the cloud storage, dialysis cloud security

With the release of Microsoft Win8, Win8 has become the subject of competing discussions among major vendors, although not long before the release patches have been loopholes to catch up, but this did not cut the enthusiasm for this new product. Every detail in this so-called Microsoft innovation-driven operating system has been placed under a magnifying glass, allowing people to consider them one by one. Microsoft's cloud storage software SkyDrive also unbearable. People pay more attention to cloud storage to a higher level. As long as you have a Microsoft account, you can log in to access SkyDrive cloud storage at any time, and it can run on multiple devices. Windows, Mac desktop, iPad, even Windows Phone, Android can enjoy free 7GB of storage space. Such a large capacity is undoubtedly reassuring service for everyone.

Microsoft's SkyDrive to get back on the desktop is not a novelty, which shows that cloud storage has made it to all major manufacturers understand the value it can be used. According to data provided by market research firm HIS iSuppli, more than 500 million new users of cloud storage are registered by 2012, and the number of newly registered cloud storage users in 2013 is expected to reach 625 million, an increase of 25%. In 2011, this annual figure was only 300 million. HIS iSuppli analysts predict that by 2017, the number of new cloud storage registered users will maintain double-digit growth. If this estimate is accurate, then by 2017, the number of registered users of the global cloud storage service will reach an alarming 1.3 billion people. In the face of such a big interest to tempt the major manufacturers began to turn their attention to the gold mine. Dropbox, Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Apple are vying to launch free cloud storage products. In addition to Baidu and Tencent Internet giants, China Telecom's "cloud e", Lenovo, Alibaba, Xiaomi and other manufacturers of cloud phones and Cloud support services also appeared one by one. Cloud storage seems to be the trend of the times.

A few days ago, the event was speculation uproar. Shanda for the so-called "physical server disk damage," which led to the individual users, "the loss of data, Shanda given the official explanation: the virtual machine's disk has two modes of production, one is the direct use of the host's physical Disk, if the host's physical disk fails, the cloud host will inevitably cause data loss, which is the cause of this incident; the other is to use remote storage, which is a grand hard drive products, this approach is actually the The user's data stored in a remote cluster, and at the same time made a number of backups, even if the host fails will not affect the cloud host data.For this argument, can be described as verbal abuse, many users do not Optimistic about this statement.

The grand cloud storage security issue has given people in the cloud computing world a loud slap in the face. Security should pay attention to storage, but security issues must not be underestimated. The outbreak of various large-scale network information leaks in 2011 is even more concerned about the data security of cloud services. Experts said that the main difficulty of cloud storage technology is how to implement cloud storage model through the use of technical data services and data resources under the security mechanisms. Some people think cloud storage security by third technology, seven exam management, that for the technical aspects of cloud storage, we need to understand what?

Storage virtualization probably referred to cloud storage is an area that is bound to be mentioned. The most common understanding of StorageVirtualization is the abstraction of storage hardware resources. By integrating one (or more) target services or capabilities with other additional capabilities, it provides a unified, comprehensive, functional service. Typical virtualization includes the following situations: shielding the complexity of the system, adding or integrating new functions, simulating, integrating or decomposing existing service functions, and the like. Storage network management technology, a large number of storage devices in storage, distributed widely caused by a wide range of issues is the storage operation and management issues. Although these issues do not need to be concerned with cloud storage users at all, cloud storage operators must solve the problems of centralized management, status monitoring, fault maintenance and maintenance through practical and effective means. Higher labor costs. As a result, cloud storage must have an efficient, centralized management platform similar to network management software that enables centralized management and presence monitoring of storage, servers, and network devices in cloud storage systems.

Summary: As the Big Data era, more and more unstructured data in our lives, we have to manage these data for storage and distribution. Data storage security is also important for businesses and individuals. We should take seriously the privacy and security issues of our individuals and enterprises. We must truly understand the technical use of products so that they can serve us better.
