A review on Data Compression Techniques in Cloud Computing

Abstract — Cloud Computing has become a crucial aspect in today's era of technology in the world and it has grown past all the boundaries. There is a need to connect resources and users without having physical connection. The high demand for data processing and leads to high computational requirement which is usually not available at the user's end. This has encouraged several companies to provide services over the cloud in the form of service, storage, platform etc. But along with its advantages cloud computing has brought with it several challenges like secu-rity, storage, scheduling etc. Storage in Cloud computing forms a very important part as the need of virtual space to store our large data has grown over these years. But the speed of uploading and downloading limits the processing time and there is a need to solve this issue of large data handling. This thesis aims at solving this problem using compression technique on multimedia data. A novel Genetic compression technique will be developed and applied on multimedia data and used in cloud computing for managing such large data. The implementation will be done i
