Abstract: In cloud computing, cloud storage plays a vital role for storing the data in cloud because the data which is in cloud can be access through internet from anywhere with the help of internet. To store the data in cloud, much software are used but we are not assure that stored information is secure and confidential. Open-Stack provides open source platform to compute, network and for storing in single Application Program Interface (API) layer. Open-stack Block Storage (cinder) serves a self servicing management for block level storage device. The original raw data is converted into blocks with the typical data storage structure of Storage-Area Network (SAN). The block storage creates a virtualization pools to define back end storage device. It allows creating data center for defining software which includes the features such as availability, scalability and security.
Keywords: Open-Stack, API, Cinder, SAN.
