On construction of a distributed data storage system in cloud

Abstract

In the past, people have focused on cluster computing and grid computing. Now, however, this focus has shifted to cloud computing. Irrespective of what techniques are used, there are always storage requirements. The challenge people face in this area is the huge amount of data to be stored, and its complexity. People are now using many cloud applications. As a result, service providers must serve increasingly more people, causing more and more connections involving substantially more data. These problems could have been solved in the past, but in the age of cloud computing, they have become more complex. This paper focuses on cloud computing infrastructure, and especially data services. The goal of this paper is to implement a high performance and load balancing, and able-to-be-replicated system that provides data storage for private cloud users through a virtualization system. This system extends and enhances the functionality of the Hadoop distributed system. The proposed approach also implements a resource monitor of machine status factors such as CPU, memory, and network usage to help optimize the virtualization system and data storage system. To prove and extend the usability of this design, a synchronize app was also developed running on Android based on our distributed data storage.
