چکیده
Cloud Computing has been a trending topic for years now and it seems it has finally become mature enough for widespread commercial application. In this paper, the authors describe their approach to establish a secure cloud architecture which conforms to the Measuring Instruments Directive of the European Union while keeping the flexibility and benefits that cloud computing promises for companies and customers alike. The authors introduce a modular concept of a secure cloud system architecture which will ensure cross-virtual machine collaboration and a legitimate, secure and protected flow of measurement data.

A filesystem-level storage cloud offers network-filesystem access to multiple customers at low cost over the Internet. In this paper, we investigate two alternative architectures for achieving multi-tenancy securely and efficiently in such storage cloud services. They isolate customers in virtual machines at the hypervisor level and through mandatory access-control checks in one shared operatin...
