Locally distributed databases

摘要

A client local storage is provided that exists on a client machine but is accessible by a server. The client local storage allows the server to "push" the actual storage of data files to the client machine. Users may then contribute local storage toward maintaining useful, but non-critical files without burdening the server for storage and backup facilities. Thus, the server may decide to push data, such as large attachments, to client local storage. Client local storage may also be used for archival of older versions of files.
