In this paper, we present the design, implementation, and evaluation of an efficient data preparation and retrieval approach for cloud storage. The approach includes a deduplication subsystem that indexes the hash of each content to identify duplicated data. As a consequence, avoiding duplicated content reduces reprocessing time during uploads and other costs related to outsource data management tasks. Our proposed data preparation scheme enables organizations to add properties such as security, reliability, and cost-efficiency to their contents before sending them to the cloud. It also creates recovery schemes for organizations to share preprocessed contents with partners and end-users. The approach also includes an engine that encapsulates preprocessing applications into virtual containers (VCs) to create parallel patterns that improve the efficiency of data preparation retrieval process. In a study case …
