On I/O Performance And Cost Efficiency Of Cloud Storage: A Client's Perspective, Binbing Hou
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
Cloud storage has gained increasing popularity in the past few years. In cloud storage, data are stored in the service provider’s data centers; users access data via the network and pay the fees based on the service usage. For such a new storage model, our prior wisdom and optimization schemes on conventional storage may not remain valid nor applicable to the emerging cloud storage.
In this dissertation, we focus on understanding and optimizing the I/O performance and cost efficiency of cloud storage from a client’s perspective. We first conduct a comprehensive study to gain insight into the I/O performance behaviors …

Api-Based Acquisition Of Evidence From Cloud Storage Providers, Andres E. Barreto
University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
Cloud computing and cloud storage services, in particular, pose a new challenge to digital forensic investigations. Currently, evidence acquisition for such services still follows the traditional approach of collecting artifacts on a client device. In this work, we show that such an approach not only requires upfront substantial investment in reverse engineering each service, but is also inherently incomplete as it misses prior versions of the artifacts, as well as cloud-only artifacts that do not have standard serialized representations on the client.
In this work, we introduce the concept of API-based evidence acquisition for cloud services, which addresses these concerns …
