SECURING INTEGRITY AND CONSISTENCY OF A CLOUD STORAGE SERVICE WITH EFFICIENT CLIENT OPERATIONS

摘要

A method for providing integrity and consistency of a cloud storage service to a group of mutually trusted clients may be provided. The cloud storage service may offer a set of operations, such as read, write, update, delete in respect to stored data to the clients, whereby each client only executes its own client operations when consuming one of the set of operations of the cloud storage service, and wherein each client detects data correctness of the cloud storage service based on a protocol providing fork-linearizablity.
