Abstract
A method to design, implement and create distributed indexes for storing and comparing fingerprints of videos is presented. The method effectively utilizes cloud computing platforms that offer varying amounts of computing resources. The method enables the distributed index to scale to large numbers of data points and the distributed index is robust to failures within the computing resources maintaining the index. The method minimizes the memory required to maintain the distributed index and reduces the I/O operations needed to process operations performed on the index. The method improves the efficiency of the index to process queries.
