OceanStore: An Architecture for Global-Scale Persistent Storage

by J. Kubiatowicz et al., ASPLOS 2000.

Abstract:
OceanStore is a utility infrastructure designed to span the globe and provide continuous access to persistent information. Since this infrastructure is comprised of untrusted servers, data is pro- tected through redundancy and cryptographic techniques. To im- prove performance, data is allowed to be cached anywhere, any- time. Additionally, monitoring of usage patterns allows adapta- tion to regional outages and denial of service attacks; monitoring also enhances performance through pro-active movement of data. A prototype implementation is currently under development.
