Functional Requirements (As per System Design)

• Online text storage service similar to pastebin.com or GitHub gist
• A client (user) enters text data into the system known as a paste
• A paste must not be greater than 1 MB in size
• The system must return a unique paste ID for each Paste
• The client visiting the paste ID must be able to view the paste
• The system must support only text-based data for a paste - WON'T IMPLEMENT
• The paste ID should be readable
• The paste ID should be collision-free
• The paste ID should be non-predictable
• The client should be able to choose a custom paste ID
• The paste ID should generate an analytics report (not real-time) such as the total number of access to a paste
• The client should be able to define the expiration time of the paste
• The client should be able to delete a paste
• The client must be able to set the visibility of the paste (public, private)
• The client must be able to set an optional password for the paste
• A paste must be filtered by Pastebin to prevent questionable content
