Abstract:

The computing and network convergence has become an important measure for accelerating the digital transformation of industries because it can provide high-efficiency computing power, advanced storage capacity, and high-speed transportation capacity. The evolution of computing and network convergence is also accompanied by challenges such as multi-cloud collaboration, cloud-network collaboration, cloud-data collaboration, and storage-computing collaboration. At present, the demand for migrating to the cloud in all walks of life is soaring, but most of them choose the hybrid multi-cloud deployment method, and data storage is used as the business data carrier. How to coordinate the efficient development of data storage and multi-cloud to promote the implementation of computing and network convergence has become more and more important. This paper analyzes the development trend of data storage in the process of multi-cloud development, and the challenges faced in data management and data flow in a multi-cloud environment. It proposes some suggestions on the coordinated development of data storage and cloud native so as to help enterprises to choose the appropriate storage type under the multi-cloud architecture.
