demand for such a product being identified in Activities like Studies,
Entertainment, Music, Comedy, Adventures. From these activities we saw that
the main activity people used video for was the watch content found online.

and find the videos they wanted to watch, either somewhere to stream the video
from or the files to download the video.

resolution video.

the video without buffering.

If there is extensive damage to a wide portion of the database due to

catastrophic failure, such as a server crash, the recovery method restores a past
copy of the database that was backed up to archival storage (typically tape) and
reconstructs a more current state by reapplying or redoing the operations of
committed transactions from the backed-up log, up to the time of failure. And
in the meanwhile, the server switch to the backup servers to keep the site
working.

4.3. Security Requirements

Security systems need database storage just like many other applications.
However, the special requirements of the security market mean that owner must
choose their database partner carefully. All the Private data uploaded by the
user is absolutely confidential to the other users. User can also report for if the
find any suspicious activity in the YouTube, so the security department can
take care of that.

9.0 Conclusion
In conclusion, YouTube is a very strong growing platform creating lots of
opportunities for entrepreneurs and motivated people. The best way to succeed
at it, apart from creating good video content, is knowing what people like and
knowing how to reach those people, for which of course you will need a
mastery of social media.
I can firmly conclude that social media has a very strong impact on YouTube,
since it makes the producer content reach more people, it facilitates the
incorporation of new subscribers to a channel and it makes it seem more local or
familiar. The ability of writing a tweet to your YouTube star and maybe have a
response is a great way of interaction between communicator and receiver.
Social media is also useful for the producer since it acts as a way to receive
feedback. If a lot of people start complaining about how he plays, or the T-
Shirts he wears, for example, the top comments will be featured on the top of
the comment section and thus the producer will have no way of not reading it,
and hopefully fixing whatever problem in case there was one. The can also be
inspiring and supportive comments as well as advice or tips for future videos.
YouTube Is growing with a great speed and I can say that there will be no other
online streaming site who is going to surpass this website at least for 10 years.
