Distributed File Storage and Sharing using P2P Network in Cloud?

Cloud Computing is the most important paradigm in IT industry in which most of the application follows Client/Server architecture. Client/Server architecture is costly in terms of server bandwidth and storage. Too many requests from the clients may lead to congestion, which rarely takes place in P2P network. Overload can lead to breaking-down of servers. In peer-to-peer, the total bandwidth of the network increases as the number of peers increase. There is need to provision file system on demand anytime & anywhere. File system which may contain any type of data i.e. video, images, virtual machine image file. These files are large in size as compare to other files. By using this concept we proposed file storage and sharing architecture to improve provisioning time, availability, scalability, speed while eliminating various bottlenecks such as Storage Size, Network Speed, Jitter, and count of Clients etc. Like socially connected people have high chance of seeing same video, in cloud also logically connected nodes would have high chance of using virtual machine files. A network coding based storage strategy is put forward, which can improve the utilization of each peer's limited storage space. Moreover, with the same storage space, it can increase the diversity of stored data, which can improve the efficiency of data sharing in cloud.
