EXPLORING THE USE OF BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY FOR SECURE DATA MANAGEMENT IN CLOUD COMPUTING ENVIRONMENTS

In this study, we investigate how blockchain technology might be applied in cloud computing to provide safe data management. We present a detailed literature analysis of previous studies on this subject, discussing the merits and shortcomings of various methods and approaches. Concerns around scalability, interoperability, and regulatory compliance are also discussed as they pertain to the usage of blockchain technology for cloud-based data management. The creation of hybrid blockchain solutions, permissioned blockchain networks, and the combination of blockchain technology with AI and ML are also discussed, along with other recent advancements in this area. Finally, we identify key areas for future work in this field, such as improving the interoperability between different blockchain networks, developing more efficient and scalable blockchain-based solutions for cloud data management, and exploring the potential integration of blockchain technology with other emerging technologies. In conclusion, this paper is an excellent reference for anyone who are studying or working with blockchain technology for safe data management in the cloud.
