Patent

CA 2618135

An encrypted file storage solution consists of a cluster of processing nodes, external data storage, and a software agent (the "File System Watcher"), which is installed on the application servers. Cluster sizes of one node up to many hundreds of nodes are possible. There are also remote "Key Servers" which provide various services to one or more clusters. The preceding describes a preferred embodiment, though in some cases it may be desirable to "collapse" some of the functionality into a smaller number of hardware devices, typically trading off cost versus security and fault-tolerance.

Un solution de stockage de fichiers cryptés consiste à utiliser une grappe de noeuds de traitement, un stockage de données extérieur et un agent logiciel (surveillant du système de fichiers) installé sur les serveurs d'applications. On peut constituer des grappes allant d'un à plusieurs centaines de noeuds. On peut également prévoir des "serveurs clefs" fournissant différents services à une ou des grappes. Ce qui précède a trait à une exécution préférée, quoi que, dans certains cas, on puisse "regrouper" certaines des fonctionnalités en un plus petit nombre de dispositifs en privilégiant le coût par rapport à la sûreté ou à la tolérance aux erreurs.
