Abstract

Distributing pull protocol requests via a relay server and thereby reducing the number of outgoing packets used by a fragment pull protocol, including the steps of aggregating, by an assembling device, a plurality of fragment pull protocol requests into an aggregated message; transmitting the aggregated message to a relay server, whereby the relay server distributes the requests to at least two fractional-storage servers; and receiving, by the assembling device from the at least two fractional-storage servers, a plurality of fragments in response to the aggregated message.
