摘要:In the last few years, cloud computing has grown from being a promising business concept to one of the fastest growing segments of the IT industry. Now, recession-hit companies are increasingly realizing that simply by tapping into the cloud they can gain fast access to best-of-breed business applications or drastically boost their infrastructure resources, all at negligible cost. But as more and more information on individuals and companies is placed in the cloud, concerns are beginning to grow about just how safe an environment it is. The Cloud data Storage redefines the security issues targeted on customer’s outsourced data (data that is not stored/retrieved from the costumers own servers). In this work we observed that, from a customer’s point of view, relying upon a solo SP for his outsourced data is not very promising. In this paper, we propose a secured cost-effective multi-cloud storage security model in cloud computing which holds an economical distribution of data among the available SPs in the market, to provide customers with data availability as well as secure storage. Our results show that, our proposed model provides a better decision for customers according to their available budgets.
