Fault-Tolerance Techniques in Cloud Storage: A Survey

In recent years, cloud computing is highly embraced and more organizations consider at least some type of cloud strategy and apply theming their business process. Since failure is probable in cloud data centers and access to cloud resources available is fundamental, evaluation and application of different fault-tolerance methods is inevitable. On the other hand, the increasing growth of cloud storage users motivated us to study fault-tolerance techniques, and their strengths and weaknesses. In this paper, after introducing the concept off ault-tolerance in the context of cloud computing, the faulttolerant techniques are presented, and after introduction of some measures, a comparative analysis is provided.
