Enhanced Storage Clients

This paper describes work that we have done in developing enhanced clients for storage systems. Our work is particularly applicable to cloud storage. Our work extends existing clients by adding integrated caching support, encryption, compression, and delta encoding. We have built enhanced clients for multiple storage systems including Cloudant and OpenStack Object Storage. We have also written a Java library for allowing our enhanced client features to be integrated with other storage clients and a wide range of applications.
