SYSTEM AND METHOD OF EMPLOYING A CLIENT SIDE DEVICE TO ACCESS LOCAL AND REMOTE DATA DURING COMMUNICATION DISTRUPTIONS

摘要

A method and system are provided for locally storing data obtained from a plurality of sources, the local communication device being in communication with a local server that is associated with a local network, the local server also associated with an external network, and at least one client terminal device that communicates with the local server over an internal network, the local server synchronizing with a set of at least one or more remote servers over the external network.

1. A local communication device that locally stores data obtained from a plurality of sources, the local communication device being in communication with a local server that is associated with a local network, the local server also associated with an external network, and at least one client terminal device that communicates with the local server over an internal network, the local server synchronizing with a set of at least one or more remote servers over the external network, the local communication device comprising:
a software agent that communicates with the local server, the set of at least one or more remote servers and the at least one client terminal device to gather the data from the local server, the set of at least one or more remote servers and the at least one client terminal device, wherein the local communication device provides access to the data independent of geographical location or time periods when a data connection is disrupted between the at least one client terminal device and the local device, or between the local device and the set of at least one or more remote servers; a storage module that is adapted to store the gathered data to at least one memory device; a conversion module that generates a predefined format for the gathered data; and a synchronizing module that applies a transaction-based, encryption and decryption synchronization algorithm to transfer data at predefined stages between at least the local server, the set of at least one or more remote servers and the at least one client terminal device.
