Patent attributes
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for a mixed network architecture in data forwarding storage. A method includes two or more networks of interconnected computer system nodes, in which the networks include at least one private network and one public network. A request can be received from a source system linked to a central server to store data. The method further includes determining whether to forward the data to a computer memory in the private network or the public network or a combination of private and public networks, directing the data to the computer memory in the determined network, and continuously forwarding the data from the computer memory to other computer memories in the determined network without storing on any physical storage device in the first network.
