Abstract
A method and system for storage of a data block for time continuum back-in-time data retrieval. The method comprises receiving a data block from a user node; updating an index stored in a memory respective of a time that the data block was received, wherein the time is a past time for retrieval of the data block; generating a hash number respective of contents of the data block; updating the index with the generated hash number; checking for existence of the generated hash number in a database; upon determination that the generated hash number does not exist in the database saving the data block in a storage device; increasing monotonously a transaction number respective of the generated hash number; and updating the index with the transaction number.
