Abstract
A data movement method includes enabling a given data center operatively coupled to one or more other data centers via a communication network to move data between itself and the one or more other data centers in accordance with a peer-to-peer protocol. The given data center and the one or more other data centers thereby form a peer-to-peer network. At least a portion of the given data center and the one or more other data centers are implemented on a cloud computing platform.
