Integrated File Management System for Local and Cloud Storage

Description

The current implementation of our file handling mechanism involves separate management for files stored in temporary local storage and files stored in cloud storage services (like Minio). This separation can lead to challenges in tracking, managing, and maintaining files efficiently.

The goal of this enhancement is to develop an integrated file management system that seamlessly interacts with both local and cloud storage. This system should provide a unified interface for file operations, regardless of where the files are stored.

Expected Features

1. Unified Listing: The system should be capable of listing files from both local and cloud storage in a single interface, with clear indicators of the file's location.

2. Synchronization Mechanism: Implement a mechanism to sync files between local and cloud storage. This includes uploading local files to the cloud and updating the local cache with files from the cloud storage.

3. Error Handling and Recovery: The system should robustly handle errors in file operations and provide mechanisms for recovery, especially for scenarios where files are not successfully transferred between local and cloud storage.

4. Logging and Monitoring: Integrate comprehensive logging for file operations to monitor and audit file interactions across local and cloud storage.

5. Security and Access Control: Ensure that file access and operations adhere to security policies and access control mechanisms.

Potential Challenges

• Managing and syncing file metadata between local and cloud storage.
• Handling network issues and ensuring data consistency during file operations.
• Implementing effective error handling and recovery strategies.

Benefits

• Improved efficiency in file management across different storage types.
• Enhanced reliability and robust
