NOTE: THIS PROJECT IS NO LONGER ACTIVELY MAINTAINED. THE MULTITHREADED WEBDAV IMPLEMENTATION IS WORRTH STUDING THOUGH, ALBEIT MICROSOFT (WHO ELSE)) NEVER PLAYED NICE WITH WEBDAV. https://github.com/mbk/CloudDrive/blob/master/src/clouddrive/src/main/scala/utils/Utils.scala MIGHT HAVE SOME NUGGETS TOO

Feel free to ask help

This worked was bootstrapped by UNINET Sigma, the Norwegian national HPC coordination organization.

The virtual clouddrive is a Website and WebDAV interface framework/product to cloud storage providers for the rest of us. Check the [[list of supported clients and platforms|Supported clients and platforms]]

The Use Case: organizations that want to provide easily accesible secure storage to their users with full encryption before data gets stored in the cloud

Features:

• Lots of native client support (Win7, OSX, iOS, Android, Linux) via WebDAV
• Tagging data and search based on tags
• world viewable public data
• federated access and enrollment via website
• transparent compression and encryption separated from actual storage (i.e. your data is secure: you hold the keys)
• pluggable back ends for storage (local filesystem, S3, ...)
• metering, quotas etc. built-in

This allows everyone to set up their own, super-scalable Internet storage. Your storage.

It takes a bit of time and effort, but it is well worth it if you want to provide a more private storage service based on cloud back end technology (though a local filesystem will work, too).
