Browser Download System with Network Storage Integration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing browsers can only download data to one computer, requiring users to restart the download process if the computer changes, which affects efficiency in obtaining and using network data.
Innovation Solution
A browser and system that allows data to be downloaded to a network storage server, enabling users to upload and store data at the browser side, with the option to retrieve it directly from the server, avoiding repeated downloads and improving data accessibility and security through cloud storage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If data is downloaded and saved locally on a single computer, then the download process is simple and direct, but the data cannot be accessed when the computer is changed, requiring repeated downloads and reducing efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions data storage from a single-dimension local storage model to a multi-dimension network storage model. Downloaded data is uploaded to network storage servers accessible from multiple computers, adding the dimension of network accessibility and enabling data retrieval across different devices without repeated downloads.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces network storage servers as intermediaries between the user and downloaded data. Instead of direct local storage, data flows through network storage servers that act as mediators, enabling indirect access from multiple computers while reducing the need for repeated downloads.
2Reliability
If data is stored locally on a single computer, then storage is simple and direct, but data security and backup capabilities are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple storage locations (multiple network storage servers) to store copies of the same data. This combination approach provides redundancy and backup capabilities, improving data security and reliability while distributing the storage load across the network.
3Productivity
If data is re-downloaded when computer changes, then no additional storage infrastructure is needed, but download efficiency and user productivity decrease
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary action by uploading downloaded data to network storage servers immediately after download completion. This advance preparation ensures data is readily available for future retrieval, eliminating the need for repeated downloads and improving subsequent productivity.

AI summary
The invention discloses a browser and system for download and a download method, and relates to the field of internet technologies. The browser for download comprises: a download starting unit configured to start data download of a browser login user at the browser side; a prompt unit configured to prompt to save downloaded data into a network storage server bound to the browser login user at the browser side; a transmission unit configured to receive a download instruction from the user, and upload the data downloaded at the browser side to the network storage server bound to the browser login user; and a reception unit configured to receive address information of the uploaded downloaded data at the network side fed back by the network storage server. The browser, system and method may effectively avoid the occurrence of a situation of repeated download, and improve the efficiency of a user obtaining and using network data.
