Abstract:
Cloud services allow for hosting applications partially or completely in the Cloud by migrating their components and data. Especially with respect to data migration, a series of functional and non-functional challenges like data confidentiality arise when considering private and public Cloud data stores. In this paper we identify some of these challenges and propose a set of reusable solutions for them, organized together as a set of Cloud Data Patterns. Furthermore, we show how these patterns may impact the application architecture and demonstrate how they can be used in practice by means of a use case.
