Abstract
A method and system for redirecting client-side storage operations to a remote storage device. A user agent module executing on a client device receives a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) message that includes a client-side storage operation directed to a client storage device. The user agent module detects the client-side storage operation and accesses defined criteria to identify one or more remote storage devices on which to implement the remote storage device in lieu of the client storage device. The user agent module then implements the client-side storage operation on the remote storage device.
