New Approach For Time Efficent Backup and Restore on on-line Server using Android Platform
PROF. R. C. Dharmik · IOSR Journal of Engineering · 2012
while many solutions for making backup and restoring data are known for servers and desktops, mobile devices pose several challenges, mainly due to the differentiating in devices, vendors, operating system and version available in mobile market.We introduce a new backup and restore approach for mobile devices, which helps to reduce the effort in saving and restoring personal data.Our approach is minimize time in efficient way for backup and restoring the data on on-line server using android platform.We are using compression (ZIP) which will reduce the size of file which we are interested to backup and we also use some other component which helps us to reduce the time in backup and efficient storage at the server side.Using of various compression techniques such as RLE, Lempel ziv, wavelets can introduce overhead for maintaining different compression for different purpose.Instead of XML, we are using PHP, the most advantage of using php is that it store file as fragmented manner and did not need any extra effort to do.Also MYsql is far better because it have the flexibility (using SQL commands like SELECT, DELETE, SORT, INSERT, etc.) to easily manipulate the data.
