Decentralized cloud architectures: from a security perspective

Decentralized cloud systems are becoming increasingly popular. These services are cheaper, more secure, robust, private and reliable than their old centralized competitors.

Here at Internxt we are creating decentralized internet services, which bring all the benefits of the Internet, with the security and privacy that users deserve. Our first service, X Cloud, is our decentralized cloud storage platform. We are not alone in this fight against big centralized cloud providers. Namely, companies such as Sia, Storj or MaidSafe are also battling in this fight.

However, to which extent are these innovative cloud services truly better than older systems? The paper “Analysis of Centralized and Decentralized Cloud Architectures” by the School of Computing, University of South Alabama (2016) analyzes the topic. This research is funded in part by a grant from the National Science Foundation, Division of Computer and Network Systems, Secure & Trustworthy Cyberspace Program. The research finds the following:

Defining characteristics, such as the degree of component centralization or decentralization, have significant implications on the security and performance of cloud-based services. Cloud components which are centralized, often increase the risk of catastrophic failure in the event of a zero-day virus. Decentralized components offer compartmentalization of risk.

Cloud component storage is classified as decentralized if the storage system is distributed, and centralized if the storage system is singularly controlled. In the centralized version, the storage system is maintained by the cloud controller, and it is operated by the central server in the cloud controller. All the hosts are allocated with only one storage system for storing the images, files and data. In the decentralized version, a group of clusters with different storage systems for different clusters are used. Therefore, the group of hosts in the cluster will use the storage system related to that cluster but not the other storage system of the other cluster. This provides offers higher levels of scalability, redundancy, and durability in decentralized architectures.

Decentralized storage clusters provide security via compartmentalization. Even if attackers are able to infiltrate an isolated storage array, they cannot launch a rogue virtual machine without also hacking the cloud’s compute component. In these architectures, files are often split into evenly sized segments of data. Each segment or block has its own address but no metadata to provide context about what it is. The storage target can be configured to replicate data across storage arrays or distributed file systems. Decentralized compute components isolate resource scheduling from the control node. A cluster controller performs scheduling for its respective cluster. If an isolated cluster controller is compromised or otherwise brought offline, the other cluster controller would still function. In the case of Internxt’s X Cloud, files are not only distributed and replicated, but also end-to-end encrypted. We are using AES 256 CTR encryption protocol. In centralized systems, if the cloud controller is hacked, the storage array should be considered compromised as well. The decentralized compute design presents a reduced risk of catastrophic failure.

All in all, decentralized architectures provide enhanced security to cloud functionality. The services they provide are performed in isolation. If a decentralized component is compromised or encounters a runtime error which is unrecoverable worst case scenario is that the component goes offline, while the rest of the cloud continues to function normally. This design presents a failsafe which increases cloud stability. On the other hand, centralized cloud designs interlace core functions within the same space. If an error or attack manages to destabilize a centralized component, the entire cloud is at risk.

A good concept and ideas, you should give more details and make your ann to have a good views. Peoples might turn away because of your ann is not attractive.

Always please, I'll also look for something interesting, if I find something, I'll write it!

Thanks for the information, now I'll be more attentive

I also only recently learned that this can greatly affect the implementation of the project

But I have not heard such data, it is very interesting and important in fact

Many of them have experience in working with very large projects, so I think this project has a chance to get ahead

Yes, yes, it always attracted people when developers communicate with investors in one language

I think this is all due to the fact that the project immediately began to communicate actively with the community

I agree, it is literally a small period of time, and the number of participants has already accumulated

The project only appeared, but already managed to get people to stop on it their choice

Hello,

I am very interested in this project.
but I have some questions :
why can not we see the team in detail on the website. do you have another link possibly?
What are the competitors?
What is the potential of the project and this currency?
finally, why few people are interested in it so far that the idea seems great ...

Thank you

Good idea for the project! I have many thoughts on this matter. Many questions and clarifications. To whom can I contact them?

Below price - more orders.
More orders - more demand for a token.
The price of the token is growing. Everyone benefits.
A simple scheme.

But the more users distributing their resources, the less buyers pay. I do not understand what kind of winnings will be here.

They will receive payment for the use of their resources in the local currency INXT. Next, they can use it at their own discretion

What did the outside people come to? What will they earn?

No, just log in and do not turn off the computer. Then you can do anything. If you do not do anything with a computer, then give out your resources as much as possible. Otherwise, put no more than 2/3 of the resources.
