Abstract:
A device may comprise storage, a network interface configured to couple the device to a computer network and a processor connected to the storage and to the network interface. The processor may be configured to store a file in the storage, divide the file into at least a first and second part, send the first part of the file to a first selected remote storage coupled to the computer network and send the second part of the file to a second selected remote storage coupled to the computer network, the second remote storage being different from the first remote storage, such that, responsive to receiving, over the network, a request from a requestor to access the file, the first part of the file is provided to the requestor from the first remote storage and the second part of the file is provided to the requestor from the second remote storage.
