Abstract

Disclosed herein is a system and method to synchronize files from a hosted file system where the client endpoint devices have direct access to the files stored on a hosted file store. When the clientdesires to synchronize with the files stored on the hosted file store the process identifies a sync role that can process the request. The particular sync role does not need to maintain state with theclient device or the file store. The state necessary for the processing of the synchronization process is maintained separate from the sync role such that any sync role in the system can pick up therequests and process the requests. Once the role has been selected the synchronization process proceeds as normal. As state is not maintained by the sync role multiple roles can process the request ortwo roles can handle different portions of the process.

Description

Background technique [0001] Various file synchronization solutions have been produced over the years. In these solutions, synchronization endpoints are accessible to users and applications. As files are created, modified, or deleted, the active-active synchronization engine is responsible for synchronizing these changes and bringing all endpoints to a consistent state. Some sync solutions support having managed file endpoints. However, these solutions suffer from one or both of the following limitations. First, hosted endpoints are not accessible to end users or applications. Instead, hosted endpoints can only serve as "hubs" for synchronizing files between other (non-cloud) endpoints. Second, hosted endpoints may be accessible, but only via synchronization solution-specific access protocols. Basically, there is no "direct access" to files at hosted endpoints. Instead, the application or service must implement a synchronization solution-specific protocol and access the f...
