# Secure Remote Storage of Logs with Search Capabilities
## 4 Proposed Solution
### Indexing
The implemented prototype and the obtained results demonstrate that the proposed solution is feasible, using off-the-shelf hardware, and that it outperforms related work and includes searching capabilities, such as full Boolean queries, field searching, and nested queries, which are not present in related work. In the future, we plan to extend this work into a platform to enable the debugging and execution of web/cloud applications with privacy and confidentiality requirements that are developed by cooperating teams in real time.
