Method and device for storing and distributing file content in MC network
A method, performed by a mission critical data (MCData) message store entity, of depositing MCData for file distribution (FD). the method includes receiving a MCData deposit an object request message or a MCData retrieve file to store locally request message, wherein the MCData deposit an object request message comprises information regarding the object and the MCData retrieve file to store locally request message comprises information regarding object identifier, based on the MCData deposit an object request message or the MCData retrieve file to store locally request message, retrieving uniform resource locator (URL) of file content in a MCData content server, based on a result of the retrieving, fetching the file content from the MCData content server, storing the file content into a MCData user's storage area in the MCData message store entity, and updating the object with the URL referencing the file content stored in the MCData user's storage area.
1. A method performed by a mission critical data (MCData) content server in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a message storage client, an MCData upload request message indicating a uniform resource locator (URL) of a file residing in an MCData message store entity, wherein the file resides in a secured storage area of the MCData message store entity, the secured storage area being dedicated only to an MCData user;
fetching, via a reference point MCData-FD-7, the file from the MCData message store entity based on the URL, wherein the reference point MCData-FD-7 exists between a media storage function in the MCData content server and the MCData message store entity; and
storing the file into a repository of the MCData content server.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting, to the message storage client, an MCData upload response message indicating a success or a failure.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein, in case that the MCData upload response message indicates the success, the MCData upload response message further indicates a URL associated with the stored file.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MCData upload request message includes information associated with an identity of the MCData user uploading the file.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the file stored in the repository is shared by other MCData users.
6. A mission critical data (MCData) content server in a wireless communication system, the MCData content server comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
receive, from a message storage client via the transceiver, an MCData upload request message indicating a uniform resource locator (URL) of a file residing in an MCData message store entity, wherein the file resides in a secured storage area of the MCData message store entity, the secured storage area being dedicated only to an MCData user;
fetch, via the transceiver, the file from the MCData message store entity based on the URL, via a reference point MCData-FD-7, wherein the reference point MCData-FD-7 exists between a media storage function in the MCData content server and the MCData message store entity; and
store the file into a repository of the MCData content server.
7. The MCData content server of claim 6 , the processor is further configured to:
transmit, to the message storage client via the transceiver, an MCData upload response message indicating a success or a failure.
8. The MCData content server of claim 7 , wherein, in case that the MCData upload response message indicates the success, the MCData upload response message further indicates a URL associated with the stored file.
9. The MCData content server of claim 6 , wherein the MCData upload request message includes information associated with an identity of the MCData user uploading the file.
10. The MCData content server of claim 9 , wherein the file stored in the repository is shared by other MCData users.
