1. A computing device for allowing storage services with a cloud storage system, comprising:
- a processing unit; and
a memory, the memory containing instructions that, when executed by the processing unit, configure the computing device to;
dynamically select a best route between the cloud storage system (CSS) and the computing device, wherein the CSS is geographically remote from the computing device; and
establish, based on the selected best route, a data flow between the CSS and the computing device, wherein the data flow is established to allow at least a storage service related to the CSS.

20. A distributed storage system for allowing an access to a plurality of cloud storage systems, comprising:
-
a plurality of cloud storage systems (CSSs); and a plurality of computing devices, wherein the plurality of computing devices are in close proximity to each other and are geographically remote from each of the plurality of CSSs, wherein each computing device is configured to;
dynamically select a best route between a CSS of the plurality of CSSs and the computing device; and
establish, based on the selected best route, a data flow between the CSS and the computing device wherein the data flow is established to allow at least a storage service related to the CSS. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
