Apt File System is a social distributed file system that allows users to save their files. Apt File System reduces the servers ’costs by harnessing idle resources. If user wants to share part of his drive with the Apt File System network he receives additional storage from Apt File System. It helps in improving download speed, file availability and reduces the servers ’cost. When a user adds a file to Apt File System it is encrypted and split into fragments. Each fragment is identified by apt global unique identifier (AGUID) for block storage. Apt File System clients interpret these fragments as a file system. Apt File System uses eraser coding and map reduce framework for robustness, decreases latency and guarantees that file is never lost. If any fragment will lost, then file will not be open. This proposed new file system will be work very perfectly in cloud computing, grid computing as well as cluster computing.
