    Abstract :

    In the current trend companies are moving their computing infrastructure to clouds computing from the traditional servers. The cloud hosting provides more features compared to the traditional hosting. Ability to grow at faster rate, handle huge load at the time of surge traffic. Enterprises do not need to buy/invest in hardware as cloud we lease the infrastructure. Cloud will take away burden of server maintenance. Cloud give us flexibility to pay as per usage not a fixed cost per machine/server so that we do not worry about idle servers. Organizations do not worry about the throughput or capacity of the servers as cloud provides the high availability and ability to grow and shrink as per the demand, this feature makes systems to handle huge traffic at short durations. Cloud provides replication across different servers which are spread across multiple geographical locations in the world. Cloud data centers are located in multiple locations makes us to host the server near to the location of users. Clouds providing all the features also makes expensive compared to the traditional services. They are not flexible in terms of costs. This makes clouds expensive for file hosting. In this paper, we explain the concept of CHARM, which provides cheaper data hosting using multiple cloud services which ensures high availability of data. It provides two key features which makes it better than the single cloud hosting. The first is using more than one cloud service provides high availability even one cloud services down still file is available. The second is redundant algorithm to store data in multiple clouds and retrieve the data from multiple clouds without any data loss. The distribution load is based on the pricing of clouds. The system makes sure we get optimum price. On an evaluation of the performance of CHARM, the results show that our system is able to model accurately the cloud performance and to leverage this for efficient data dissemination, being able to reduce the monetary costs and transfer time.
