Abstract
Mobile cloud storage services provide users a convenient and reliable way to store and share data on mobile devices. Despite increasing popularity, little work has focused on their architecture and internal sync protocol. In this article, we present a thorough architecture of mobile cloud storage services including sync protocols and key capabilities for speeding up transmission. Furthermore, we conduct a series of experiments to evaluate the sync performance of four popular commercial mobile cloud storage services. Our results show that the concrete deployment of capabilities has a strong impact on the performance of mobile cloud storage services. There is no clear winner, with all services suffering from some limitations or having potential for improvement. We pose issues and challenges to advance the topic area, and hope to pave a way for the forthcoming.
