Abstract

The rise of Web-based applications has created a demand for streamlined data management and automatic data synchronization. Even manually stored local data is often insufficient to meet these requirements, necessitating a solution that can efficiently manage data access and storage through Cloud technology. This study advocates for utilizing the Google Drive API to resolve these issues. By leveraging the benefits of Google Drive's Cloud storage, Web applications can seamlessly synchronize user-uploaded data to the Cloud. To initiate this integration, a Google account is required to authenticate the process and serve as a mediator for data exchange. This approach employs secure authentication and authorization mechanisms to ensure data privacy. The system is developed using an iteration-based approach starting with user requirements analysis, followed by interface design and API integration. Pilot tests were then conducted to validate system performance under various usage scenarios. The findings revealed a noteworthy advancement in the synchronization and administration of data through the Web-based application with a data transmission duration of under 60 seconds, contingent on internet speed. Google Drive's API integration enables users to access files and manage them in real-time, surpassing prior limitations. To meet the demands of progressively intricate Web-based applications, future research can concentrate on enhancing data security and optimizing performance.
