Goals of Storage Cloud • Make existing use-cases for enterprise file storage more cost-effective, efficient, and reliable • Backup • Archive • Enable new use-cases for enterprise file storage • Global Collaboration • Global Availability • Global Distribution • Intelligent Tiering
Storage in a Nutshell • Fundamental need for all workloads • Inherently complex to manage over time and at large scale • Disk failure • Power consumption • Floor space in data center • Network saturation • Upgrades & migration • Ultimately: An enterprise storage strategy is about mitigating risk
Modern storage problems Unstructured data is growing exponentially • Scalability • Cost & Accounting • Vendor Lock-in
Traditional enterprise storage Direct Attached Storage • Great for local workloads and latency sensitive environments • Challenges at scale • Disk sprawl • Isolated capacity • Devices scale independently Image source: http://www.apexmicrosystems.com/?page_id=518
Traditional enterprise storage Local network based storage Network Attached Storage (NAS) Storage Area Network (SAN) Image source: http://www.apexmicrosystems.com/?page_id=518
Traditional enterprise storage Local network based storage • Great at decoupling file and block storage from compute nodes • Challenges at scale • Complex to manage • Expensive & specialized hardware • Upfront large capital investment • Vendor Lock-in • Not easy to scale out
Public Cloud Storage • All storage over the Internet • No onsite hardware to manage • Designed for unlimited scalability Image Source: http://docs.openstack.org/havana/install-guide/install/apt/content/example-object-storage-installation-architecture.html

Triple replication Self healing architecture MD5 checksum support HTTP status codes Data Integrity HTTP Request 896b7f2a00a 896b7f2a00a HTTP Response
Data Integrity Best Practices • Include an MD5 checksum of your object’s data in ETag header • This will help detect any data corruption during transmission • Compare calculated checksum with the value returned by OSCS • This will verify that the Object was uploaded correctly • Check your HTTP Status Code • This is to determine if data was stored successfully • Use network aware backup solution • To automatically restart operations interrupted due to network failures MD5 Checksum Status Code: 201 Oracle Confidential – Internal/Restricted/Highly Restricted
Data Consistency Try our Strong Consistency Flag • Default behavior is eventually consistent • Upon creating Objects are replicated to 3 machines within the data center • Since replication is not instant (synchronous) for a small window of time, Object may be in different state, across multiple machines • Similarly, upon update – in some cases, changes may not be immediately readable by all clients • Over time, all changes to all objects will eventually be replicated to all machines PUT Object Proxy Machine 1 Machine 2 Machine 3 Oracle Confidential – Internal/Restricted/Highly Restricted
Data Consistency Best Practices • Strong Consistency (Traditional Filesystem) • Used by On Line Transaction Processing (OLTP) systems • Limits scalability and reduces availability on hardware faults • Eventual Consistency (Object Storage System) • Suitable for backup/log files and unstructured data • Ideal when scalability is critical for highly distributed infrastructures • Each approach has its own use cases and trade offs • Please identify which architecture is most appropriate for your data • OSCS offers best of both worlds • Our object storage service offers strong consistency via an optional flag Scalability Eventual Consistency Strong Consistency Oracle Confidential – Internal/Restricted/Highly Restricted
Network Best Practices • Building in re-try logic • It is possible for operations to fail because of network outage • Applications should re-try failed operations when network gets restored • Storage Service in not a CDN • Customers can use their own 3rd party Content Deliver Networks • Performance over Wide Area Networks • Assess how quickly you want data to restore from the backup • quick or near-instant recovery, consider a local storage solution • If network connectivity is limited or unreliable, backing up to, and restoring from, the cloud may not be an efficient approach Oracle Confidential – Internal/Restricted/Highly Restricted
Atomicity • Atomicity is by definition - All or Nothing • If one part of the transaction fails, the entire transaction fails • Atomic operations keep things simple • However, the longer transaction takes – more likely that transaction may fail • What if you were allowed to • Divide your transaction into segments • Make each transaction segment individually addressable • Retry a failed segment instead of retrying the entire transaction • Retrieve consolidated result back from the system All Nothing Oracle Confidential – Internal/Restricted/Highly Restricted
Dynamic Large Object • File is segmented in < 5GB segments • All segments share a common prefix • Lexicographically sort in correct order • All segments are stored in same container • Manifest = Container name + Common prefix Container Name + Common Prefix prefix_segment_e prefix_segment_d prefix_segment_a 1 4 prefix_segment_c OSCS sequentially concatenate all segment objects together to produce an object equivalent of the original file that was greater than 5GB 3 2 A request is made to get the manifest object prefix_segment_b prefix_segment_b prefix_segment_a prefix_segment_c Container Name + Common Prefix 25 GB prefix_segment_d prefix_segment_e Client gets the original file that was segmented into chunks Oracle Confidential – Internal/Restricted/Highly Restricted
DLO Best Practices • Use a common prefix in the object names • So that they sort in a order in which they should be concatenated • You must upload all segments to the same container • This will verify that the Object was uploaded correctly • If possible, keep manifest in a separate container • This is useful in keep container listings clean • Its best to upload all the segments before uploading manifest • With this method, the full object is not available for downloading until the upload is complete prefix_segment_a prefix_segment_b prefix_segment_c Container Name + Common Prefix prefix_segment_d prefix_segment_e Oracle Confidential – Internal/Restricted/Highly Restricted
Encryption solves the problem • Encrypted data is non-readable to unauthorized parties • Enables secure shipment of data to your Oracle Storage Cloud • Supports time-based expiration of encrypted data • Provides protection from information loss by keeping data encrypted both at rest and during the transit Authentication Role Based Access Access Control Lists HTTPS
It’s All About the Keys • Encryption keys determine the functional output of a given encryption algorithm • Keys convert the data into cyphertext and are used to convert the data back to a readable form (cleartext) • Keys must be ‘strong’ • Randomly and securely generated • Securely managed • The longer the key length, the more secure the encryption method • Lose the keys and you lose the data!
Key Management Best Practices • Keys must be always available • Key Replication, Backup/recovery • Keys must be secure • Proper access control • Key management system must scale economically • Easy-to-use administration interface • Key management system must be easy to manage & use • Easy-to-use administration interface • Key management system must be openly architected • Wide range of environments and client-end points, Standard protocols • Key management system must offer auditing/reportingtools • Key lifecycle, policy compliance, alerts
