Nearline storage (a portmanteau of "near" and "online storage") is a term used [1] in computer science to describe an intermediate type of data storage that represents a compromise between online storage (supporting frequent, very rapid access to data) and offline storage/archiving (used for backups or long-term storage, with infrequent access to data).
Cloud storage is a model of computer data storage in which data, said to be on "the cloud", is stored remotely in logical pools and is accessible to users over a network, typically the Internet. The physical storage spans multiple servers (sometimes in multiple locations), and the physical environment is typically owned and managed by a cloud ...
ISO/IEC 17826 Information technology — Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI) Version 2.0.0 is an international standard [1] that specifies a protocol for self-provisioning, administering and managing access to data stored in cloud storage, object storage, storage area network and network attached storage systems.
Google Cloud Storage is an online file storage web service for storing and accessing data on Google Cloud Platform infrastructure. [1] The service combines the performance and scalability of Google's cloud with advanced security and sharing capabilities. [2] It is an Infrastructure as a Service , comparable to Amazon S3.
Cloud storage is generally deployed in the following configurations: public cloud, private cloud, community cloud, or some combination of the three also known as hybrid cloud. [4] In order to be effective, the cloud storage needs to be agile, flexible, scalable, multi-tenancy, and secure. [5]
Mobile cloud storage is a form of cloud storage [1] that is accessible on mobile devices such as laptops, tablets, and smartphones. Mobile cloud storage providers offer services that allow the user to create and organize files, folders, music, and photos, similar to other cloud computing models. [ 2 ]
Cloud Platform – At the heart of any cloud storage system is the ability to manage hyperscale object storage and a Hadoop Distributed Files System . Elastic storage capability is particularly well suited to hyperscale [11] and Hadoop environments, where its capability to rapidly respond to changing circumstances and priorities is essential [12]
Data conversion is the conversion of computer data from one format to another. Throughout a computer environment, data is encoded in a variety of ways. For example, computer hardware is built on the basis of certain standards, which requires that data contains, for example, parity bit checks.
