Abstract

Enormous amounts of unstructured data such as images, videos, emails, sensors’ data and documents of multiple types are being generated daily by varied applications. Apart from the challenges related to collection or processing of this data, its efficient storage is also a significant challenge since this data do not conform to any predefined storage model. Therefore, any enterprise dealing with huge unstructured data requires a scalable storage system that can provide data durability and availability at a low cost. The paper proposes a tenant-centric approach to develop an object-based software defined storage system for SaaS multi-tenant applications. We present TOSDS (Tenant-centric Object-based Software Defined Storage), a system that can efficiently meet the storage requirements of users or tenants with diverse needs who are using a multitenant SaaS application. The experimental verification of TOSDS illustrates its effectiveness in storage utilization as well as tenant isolation.
