Cloud storage services, such as Dropbox, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, and Microsoft OneDrive, have greatly facilitated users’ synchronizing files across heterogeneous devices. Among them, Dropbox-like services are particularly beneficial owing to the delta sync functionality that strives towards greater network-level efficiency. However, when delta sync trades computation overhead for network-traffic...
Nowadays, more and more enterprises and organizations are hosting their data into the cloud, in order to reduce the IT maintenance cost and enhance the data reliability. However, facing the numerous cloud vendors as well as their heterogenous pricing policies, customers may well be perplexed with which cloud(s) are suitable for storing their data and what hosting strategy is cheaper.The general status...
Cloud storage services allow files to be synchronized among multiple users or devices easily. To minimize the amount of network traffic, these services utilize incremental data synchronization techniques. However, little is known about their particular mechanisms and corresponding efficiency. In this paper, we focus on Dropbox, the most popular cloud storage service, as a case study. We examine the...
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is the most common and fundamental type of cloud computing. It provides on-demand rent and access to virtual machine and storage. In this type of cloud computing, infrastructure service suppliers and users form a resource market. In this paper, we present a cost-based resource scheduling paradigm in cloud computing by leveraging market theory to schedule compute...
