Abstract
Compared to the commercial networks, R&E networks have the strength such as flexible network engineering and design. Based on those features of R&E networks, we propose our storage cloud service model which supports general-purpose network users in a central region and experimental network users in distributed regions simultaneously. We prototype our service model utilizing multiple proxy controllers of OpenStack Swift service in order to deploy several regions via experimental backbone networks. Our experiments on the influence of the network latency and the size of data to be transmitted show that the bigger size of data is preferable to the smaller size of data in an experimental backbone network where the network latency increases within 10ms because the rate of throughput decline in the bigger object is comparatively small. It means that our service model is appropriate for experimental network users who directly access the service in order to move intermittently high volume of data as well as normal users in the central region who access the service frequently.
