Factors affecting the use of cloud storage in Xi’an of China

Cloud storage has become a hot topic and has changed the way people store information and resources that allow users to store anytime, anywhere via a networked device. It subversively changes the way information stored and has been considered the infrastructure of cloud computing technology. China&#...

Among the five variables, the most prominent one is output quality, this means the quality of cloud storage itself should be improved and further can attract more users.
