Abstract
Context-based intelligent placement of files in aggregated cloud storage is provided. A virtual volume can be created to provide an aggregated interface for accessing aggregated cloud storage. When the user attempts to create a file on the virtual volume, the virtual volume can employ a placement algorithm to intelligently select one of the aggregated cloud storage providers to which the request to create the file will be directed. The placement algorithm can consider context of the aggregated cloud storage providers, network metrics, and other factors in its selection. In this way, the aggregated cloud storage can be efficiently used while maximizing the user experience.
