Project Overview: The Storage Service is a secure and scalable backend application built with Spring Boot to handle file uploads, storage, and retrieval. It provides a RESTful API for managing files, ensuring secure access, version control, and cloud integration.

Key Features: ✅ Secure File Upload & Retrieval: Users can upload and access files through RESTful endpoints. ✅ Authentication & Authorization: Implemented JWT-based authentication to restrict access to files based on user roles. ✅ Cloud Storage Integration: Supports local storage and cloud providers like AWS S3 for scalable storage solutions. ✅ Metadata Management: Stores file metadata (size, type, upload date) for efficient tracking. ✅ Error Handling & Validation: Ensures safe file operations with size/type restrictions and exception handling. ✅ Asynchronous Processing: Uses Spring Boot’s asynchronous execution to handle large file uploads efficiently.

My Role & Contributions: 🔹 Designed and developed the Spring Boot REST API for file storage and retrieval. 🔹 Implemented JWT authentication for secure user access. 🔹 Integrated AWS S3 & local storage options for flexible file storage. 🔹 Optimized database queries for efficient metadata management. 🔹 Ensured API reliability through unit and integration testing using JUnit & Postman.

The Storage Service API provides a secure, scalable, and efficient way to handle file management for web and mobile applications. It ensures fast and reliable storage access, making it ideal for enterprise use cases requiring document and media storage.
