Building a Cloud Storage Service System

Cloud Storage services are increasingly noticed as they promise elastic capability and high reliability at low cost. In such services, you can store most of your files to authenticated Cloud Storage Service center, and you do not worry about your space being inadequate or wasted because the storage being able to be adjusted dynamically is the most important feature of the Cloud Storage. In this paper, we present a solution about how to build a Cloud Storage Service System based on the open-source distributed database, it follows a stratum design that includes Web service front-end, transformation processing layer and data storing layer. Terminal users can access their own data in this system through three Web service interfaces. More over, a complete prototype system based on this architecture is demonstrated.
