Systems and methods for image deduplication in a file are provided. A method includes identifying a plurality of similar images (e.g., similar intent images) in an electronic document. The method also includes designating one of the plurality of similar images as a master copy. The method also includes replacing each remaining one of the plurality of similar images, other than the master copy, with one of (i) a duplicate copy of the master copy and (ii) a soft link pointing to the master copy.

Methods and systems for enhancing reliability in deduplication over storage clouds are provided. A method includes: determining a weight for each of a plurality of duplicate files based on parameters associated with a respective storage device of each of the plurality of duplicate files; and designating one of the plurality of duplicate files as a master copy based on the determined weight.

Tenant driven security in a storage cloud is provided. A method includes determining whether a tenant places a physical key into a slot associated with a hard disk provided by a service provider. The method further includes allowing the tenant to have access to the hard disk after determining that the tenant has placed the physical key into the slot.

A method implemented in a computer infrastructure including a combination of hardware and software includes receiving from a local computing device a request to securely delete a file. The method also includes determining the file is deduplicated. The method further includes determining one of: the file is referred to by at least one other file, and the file is not referred to by another file. The method additionally includes securely deleting links associating the file with the local computing device without deleting the file when the file is referred to by at least one other file. The method also includes securely deleting the file when the file is not referred to by another file.
摘要:
Methods and systems for controlling a geographic region of data in cloud computing are described. A method implemented in a computer infrastructure including a combination of hardware and software includes: receiving a request from a local computing device to save data on a network including a plurality of data storage locations in a plurality of different geographic regions; determining a specified geographic region of the plurality of different geographic regions by analyzing at least one of: (i) file attributes associated with the data, and (ii) predefined rules; identifying one of the plurality of data storage locations within the specified geographic region based on the determining step; and routing the data to the identified one of the plurality of data storage locations within the specified geographic region.
摘要:
A tool for notifying a recipient of an email message, belonging to an email thread, that a recipient address has been added to or dropped from the thread. Address fields of the email message received are compared to the address fields of the most recent prior email message in the thread. Addressed that are determined to be added or dropped are stored in the metadata of the email message received so the added or dropped recipient addresses can be accessed to notify recipients of subsequent emails in the email thread. The metadata of previous email messages in the email thread are accessed to notify the recipient of recipient addresses added or dropped between any two consecutive email messages in the thread.
摘要:
Methods and systems for data relocation in global storage cloud environments are provided. A method includes locating a data server near a travel location of a user based on one or more travel plans of the user. The method further includes transferring data of the user from a home data server near a home location of the user to the data server near the travel location.

摘要:
An approach for specifying data in a standards style pattern of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) environments is provided. The approach implemented in a computer infrastructure, includes defining an interface including one or more local data elements and one or more references to one or more common data elements, of a service, the one or more common data elements being defined in a library for a plurality of services. The approach further includes configuring a data definition file (DDF) which indicates whether each of the one or more local data elements and the one or more common data elements is mandatory for the service. The approach further includes validating one or more data elements from a consumer as mandatory for the service based on the configured DDF.
摘要:
A method and an apparatus for specifying a time-varying, intelligent service-oriented model are provided. A method implemented in a computer infrastructure having computer executable code embodied on a computer readable storage medium having programming instructions, includes defining information of a service which is to be provided to one or more users having access to a system storing the defined information. The method further includes defining policies associated with the defined information to allow and deny access to selected portions of the defined information, and exposing to a user of the one or more users the selected portions of the defined information based on the defined policies allowing access to the selected portions of the defined information.
