Optimized data management for e-learning in the clouds towards Cloodle

Cloud computing provides access to "infinite" storage and computing resources, offering promising perspectives for many applications, particularly e-learning. However, this new paradigm requires rethinking of database management principles in order to allow deployment on scalable, easy to access infrastructures, applying a pay-as-you-go model in which failures are not exceptions but rather the norm. The GOD project aims to provide an optimized data management system for e-learning in the cloud by rethinking traditional database management techniques, extending them to consider the specificities of this paradigm.
