Abstract:
Intercloud object storage services are crucial for inter-organization research collaborations that need huge amounts of remotely stored data and machine image. This study introduces a prototype implementation of wide-area distributed object storage services, called colony, and describes a trial of its cloud storage architecture and intercloud storage services for academic clouds.
