Abstract
A system receives first requests to create electronic storage objects that are accessible on the communication network or another communication network, and creates electronic storage objects responsive to the first requests. The first requests specify one or more data types to which the system should convert raw data received for storage in the electronic storage objects. The system also receives second requests to store specified data to the electronic storage objects, and stores received raw data (or converts the raw data to specified data types and stores the converted data) to the electronic storage objects responsive to the second requests. The system further receives third requests to retrieve data from specified electronic storage objects, and retrieves data from the specified electronic storage objects responsive to the third requests, the retrieved data being in specified data types.
