File Management

We all know how uneasy it can get transferring files between computers to a disk or CDR. Most computers these days have some kind of Internet connection and store their work in the personal disk drive. But as time passed technology took off and evolved online file storage system. Now users can expect a simple service where files can be easily uploaded and downloaded from a disk drive or a simple web based interface.

How can online file storage simplify management?

We cant deny that in this traditional infrastructure, data has to be fairly close to users. This became all the more difficult as the business became global. It's not uncommon, for instance, for work groups to span the world, with people on multiple continents collaborating on a project. However, the need to access data 24 hrs can be a problem with the companies. Online file storage system eliminates this issue. A long as the data is residing on a file storage site, users can access it from anywhere and everywhere.

Sometimes referred as “file hosting” file storage is often though of as a leased hard drive space. Web servers, after all, are nothing more than enormous hard drives filled with files. And many companies have found a revenue stream in partitioning off chunks of those hard drives and renting access to those chunks.

What makes online file storage so useful is the convenience. Virtually all commercial file hosting services use a Web-based interface, so you can upload and download programs right in your browser. Don’t have a floppy? Upload the files to your leased hard drive space through your browser, head home, and then download them onto your home computer.

How to choose your file storage application?

Pricing
Today some companies carry very aggressive pricing. But as the competition increases it will drive out these companies out of the market, as the price is likely to settle down a little.

The obvious way to look out for a perfect application is to check If they offer a unlimited storage for a normal sum. The cost should be covered only via one time sign up fee and through charges on download bandwidth. Once you need the files, you don’t mind paying to get them.

Application
As the amount of unprotected but hugely important media content out there on hard drives (music, movies, home movies, pictures), is growing every day. Look for a online storage that is packed with new computers and applications like Windows. All initial software would be auto stored, and users would have the option to continuously syncronize their hard drive with the virtual drive.

Site Reliability
This is the most important area, not to be overlooked while you pick your file storage application. Make sure that the site should have a built in method that allows access of files anywhere and everywhere. There are lot of sites I have come across that doesn’t allow the user to log in from different locations. If you’re concerned about security and use Windows, the NTFS (New technology file system) file system is faster and more efficient at storing data. Security in NTFS is based upon the key concept of assigning certain rights to specific users or groups of users.

Web 2.0 Features
Pick file storage sites that are the new players today and are more focused on key web 2.0 features. There are some best that have multiple folders (private, shared, group, public), RSS feeds for each folder, etc. There are websites that includes features that allow subscriptions for RSS enclosures (such as podcasts), so that those files are stored in the cloud instead of your hard drive.

Where is Online File Storage system heading?

Very soon offline storage will extinct for most of the Internet users. The cost and availability of network bandwidth, the cost of the “people” side of tape storage and handling, disk cost declines, multi-site DR, data de-duplication and many more factors will drive this change. It will be enough to say I think this one is happening now and will accelerate going into next year. Sure it will still take time to change but, just because it is a long trip, it doesn’t mean we don’t know where we are headed.

With the technology and power costs/limitations of moving to higher performance drives, I believe that we will achieve performance more effectively.
And at last as the concept of Web 2.0 moves ahead, the information will be separated from application.
