Towards Robust Data Storage in Wireless Sensor Networks

Siegmund N, et al.: Towards Robust Data Storage in Wireless Sensor Network
the product line is provided by including security and
integrity features, transaction management and recovery
and a customized query engine. Since data reliability in
WSNs suffers from node failures, we have presented a
new S-RAID storage layer concept inspired by the RAID
approach of server systems. This S-RAID is integrated in
a DBMS to store data redundantly and distributed in a
WSN and thus provides access to data even when single
nodes fail. In future work, we aim at implementing the
RAID layer in order to increase the reliability of data.
This includes an extension of FAME-DBMS for accessing
the S-RAID as well as data recovery strategies required
in case of node failures.
