A Mathematical Programming Approach to Multi-cloud Storage

Abstract

This paper addresses encrypted data storage in multi-cloud environments. New mathematical models and algorithms are introduced to place and replicate encrypted data chunks and ensure high availability of the data. To enhance data availability, we present two cost-efficient algorithms based on a complete description of a linear programming approach of the multi-cloud storage problem. Performance assessment results, using simulations, show the scalability and cost-efficiency of the proposed multi-cloud distributed storage solutions.
