Overview:

DIBS (Distributed Intranet Backup System) is a distributed file backup system for computers in local area networks that lack dedicated or secondary data storage. DIBS exploits the unused disk space among a set of connected machines and the high speed of local area networks to provide a transparent peer-to-peer backup solution. Each node in the DIBS system contains a module that manages its list of critical files and the files it stores for other nodes, a server that responds to requests from other nodes, and a client interface to perform backup operations. Each node is responsible for its own files, and, given adequate space on the network, will ensure the satisfaction of replication invariants.
