Personal data management: An architectural framework for personal cloud mobile application

Along with the mobile application usage increase, there is more information stored in the phone nowadays. Once the storage of the phone is lost or broken, all of the information will be gone at a time. Thus, backing up data is very important for mobile phone users. However, storing information in other devices is still risky, and it is inconvenient to transfer data between devices. Therefore, it is better to solve this problem by using mobile cloud service. In this research, based on the concept of cloud computing, a cloud service architectural framework will be presented and implemented in this article. The proposed cloud backup application enables users to synchronize different platform mobile data via cloud service. Thence, the ease-of-use and cross-platform-ability of the data will be enhanced. Furthermore, if we synchronize all the information from mobile phones to the cloud, each phone can be considered as a unique personal cloud. As long as users access the internet, they are able to retrieve the data on phones anytime and anywhere by any device.
