DECENTRALIZED CLOUD STORAGE

摘要

A decentralized cloud storage system is provided which comprises at least one client having local resources. The local resources include a first portion which is accessible to the at least one client and a second portion designated to be accessible to and managed by a cloud storage service having a computer readable storage medium. A server logic module is configured to allocate responsibility for performing a set of functions between back-end resources of the cloud storage service and the local resources designated by the at least one client. The system also includes a controller configured to manage the resources designated by the at least one client to implement the functions which have been allocated to the at least one client.
