Abstract :
Recent years, SaaS (Software as a Service) has become an innovative software delivery model. The traditional centralized software distribution model failed to meet the rapid deployment requirement of distribute software in large scale environment. In this paper, we present Soft-Union: a novel peer-to-peer based software distribution scheme. Soft-Union organizes the nodes sharing the same software into an overlay to reduce the query time. Furthermore, it incorporates a distributed mechanism for meta-information placement mechanism, and a search protocol to balance the query load and shorter the query time of the block meta-information. The experimental results validate that Soft-Union significantly reduces the block query time comparing with flooding and BT-like software distribution solutions.
