Location awareness of the cloud storage with trust management using common deployment model

Abstract

Cloud computing moves the application software, platform and infrastructure into the large data centers which are maintained at the centralized location. The Cloud Service User (CSU) requests the resources from the cloud for their current requirements without investing the money. It is a pay-as-you-go-basis which means that the CSU pay what they actually consumed. If the Cloud Service Provider (CSP) provides the service to the CSU with high quality then only they improve the business. There are various delivery models available such as SaaS, PaaS and IaaS etc. These models are deployed over the public, private, community and hybrid deployment models for the effective delivery. The existing work focused on the separation of various high-level and low-level services involved in cloud services, which always has an important aspect in the quality of service. The CSU can store the data in the cloud with security, but no awareness of the location is provided in which the data stored. The CSP has to change the location of the data from one location to another location which is unknown by the CSU. Even though, the data with high security at the cloud is available there is no way to identify the location of the data. The proposed work focuses on the location awareness of the data by using the tag which is synchronized in all the location. The CSU can get the notification whenever the data location changes by the CSP. This technique improves the reliability of the cloud storage with the CSU retention. In future the technique will be improved at the maximum level for improving the performance of the cloud computing.
