Serviço de acesso remoto a coleções musicais em servidores privados
| Resumo: | Streaming content has completely changed the way we consume it. The arising of the Internet, and streaming services, has allowed people to access a big collection of music without buying it, just by subscribing to a service or to use it for free with the consumption of publicity. But, and for those who have a local collection? They can’t use these platforms unless the service allows the user to buy the content, store it in a local environment, play it there, and the user could play it remote by streaming. The use of clouds appears to be a good solution for this group of people. Unfortenelly, when the collection is really big, the additional costs of storage of the cloud could be a big problem. In addition, normally, the user interface of these services isn’t enjoyable, i.e., isn’t user-friendly. So, a hybrid system could be the ideal, a streaming service with cloud services that allow storing the private collection. This is the best for the user but will force them to store all the collection or at minimum a part of the collection which they want to access, in an external source, with a strict organizational structure. For a new user, this couldn’t be a problem but is for a user who already has a big collection. This dissertation has proposed a remote access service to these private collections so that with just a simple gadget (smartphone, pc, ...) the user can access the content stored on their private server anywhere on the planet, without change the original location of the collection. This service was built using only normalized and open-source technologies. Based on the proposed architecture, was also developed a prototype with the main function of the system, like the possibility to play music from the private collection on a smartphone Android. The conclusion of the tests made to the prototype was that this alternative solution could be very good for the people who want that their collection remains in one place, and, at the same time, can play it remotely. |
