DataStorage

The DataStorage module provides a simple, abstract interface to a robust hybrid local-remote data storage protocol. It can be easily implemented in any application that handles data over multiple sessions, subject to some basic infrastructure prerequisites.

Overview

Features

Operation of the module is characterized by the following qualities:

• Speed: Page load times are minimized by relying primarily on local data storage and evaluating remote sync result only once they are available.
• Security: Data exposure is mitigated by encrypting data in local storage and comparing remote repositories using cryptographic hash digests; data is transferred in incremental operations to expose only what is strictly necessary, and network connections are encrypted.
• Minimal data transfer: Cryptographic hash functions allow synchronization of large amounts of data using a very small network footprint.
• Multi-device access: By periodically synchronizing with a centralized server, peripheral client devices are also indirectly synchronized with one another.
• Data backup: With data saved on multiple devices, any copy can be used to restore another in the event of unforeseeable damage, loss or theft.
