A large number of personal cloud storage systems have emerged in recent years, such as Dropbox, iCloud, Google Drive etc. A common limitation of these system is that the users have to trust the cloud provider not to be malicious. Now we have a Unity block store, which can solve the problem and provide a secure and durable cloud-based block store. However, the base Unity system does not have the concept of file on top of its block device, thus the concurrent operations to different files can cause false sharing problem. In this thesis, we propose UnityFS, a file system built on top of the base Unity system. We design and implement the file system that maintains a mapping between files and a group of data blocks, such that the whole Unity system can support concurrent file operations to different files from multiple user devices in the personal cloud.
