A Survey on Secured Searching Techniques for Effective Data Utilization in Public Cloud

Recent technology advances have made the success of cloud computing by acquiring the infrastructure, platform and software from the third party vendor. The promising benefit of cloud computing is data service outsourcing, by which the data owners stores their data in the public data centers by economically saving their capital investment towards data management. Cloud Storage provide users with abundant storage space and make user friendly for immediate acquiring of data, which is the foundation of all kinds of cloud applications. However, data outsourcing in the commercial public cloud also raise the problem for unauthorized data access and the cloud storage does not make sense if the outsourced data is not effectively utilized. The practical challenge is on how to make effective data access in the public cloud storage aiming at improvement of various searching techniques for increasing the data utilization. In this paper, an attempt is made to survey various searching techniques towards effective data utilization in cloud storage and is discussed in detail.
