Many organizations are already shifting their infrastructure and applications to the cloud. Cloud technology is accessing and availing products and services over the internet. The maintenance of cloud technology is often managed by a cloud service provider. A comparison has been made between an existing technology, on-premise file servers, and virtualized file servers in the form of cloud storage to determine the advantages and disadvantages of each file-sharing system's performance. An architectural framework and a simulation of the new cloud storage architecture have been conducted to serve as file storage. Finally, several users that are currently employing the existing on-premise file server technology have participated in user acceptance testing to try the cloud-based storage as a replacement for the file server. The test outcomes proved that end-users were able to execute their regular duties using cloud storage and that they favored it over their current file storage.
