Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatus for a distributed data environment in which data can be seamlessly accessed from remote computing devices are disclosed. For a given user having multiple computing devices, a personal distributed data bank can be formed from data storage capacities resident at the multiple computing device. The given user can access data on any of the multiple computing devices without knowing on which of the multiple computing devices the data resides. In one embodiment, an index for the user's data within the personal distributed data bank can be provided to facilitate searching, browsing and accessing of user data by the given user.

Abstract translation: 公开了可以从远程计算设备无缝访问数据的分布式数据环境的方法，系统和装置。 对于具有多个计算设备的给定用户，可以从驻留在多计算设备处的数据存储容量形成个人分布式数据库。 给定用户可以访问多个计算设备中的任何一个上的数据，而不知道数据驻留在多个计算设备中的哪一个上。 在一个实施例中，可以提供用于个人分布式数据库内的用户数据的索引，以便于给定用户搜索，浏览和访问用户数据。
