Introduction
Cloud storage is a model of data storage
in which the digital data is stored in logical
pools, the physical
Storage spans multiple servers (and often
locations ),
and the physical environment is typically
owned and
managed by a hosting company .
History
J.C.R. Licklider - One of the fathers of the cloud based
computing idea.
Global network that allows access from anywhere at
anytime.
Technological limits of the 60’s.
Concept
Cloud storage is a service model in which data is
maintained, managed and backed up remotely and
made available to users over a network
(typically the Internet)
How does cloud storage work?
Redundancy
Core of cloud computing
Equipment
Data servers
Power supplies
Data files
Replication
Popular cloud storage
services
Examples of cloud storage services we use :
o Google Drive
o Apple icloud
o Dropbox
o Box
o Microsoft Onedrive
o BT Cloud
Cloud Storage - Personal Use
Benefits
iCloud
• iCloud is

Cloud Storage - Business Benefits
With cloud storage, there's no need for CDs, external hard
drives, or localized servers.
Data is quickly and automatically updated in the cloud and
available for your retrieval whenever you need
it.
Should your office become the victim of a burglary, fire, or
natural disaster, your data is safe and secure in the cloud, even
if your physical assets are destroyed.
One of the greatest benefits of cloud storage is its ability to
grow with its users.
With no need for physical, on-site storage space, you can have
a smaller workspace, less equipment to buy, and fewer IT
employees to maintain your equipment and manage your data.
what are the negatives to cloud
computing?
Security: Many companies may not want to hand over
their data to an external organization to store, fearing that
they may not have the right security software to protect
the company's data.
Performance: There were several incidents that some
cloud-service providers temporarily went down or lost
customer's data.
Advantages of Cloud Storage

Conclusion
Grid computing was the last research –led centralized
approach.
However there are concerns that the mainstream adoption
Of cloud computing could cause many problems for users.
Many new open source systems appearing that you can
Install and run on your local cluster.
