OpenStack EFSS with File Permissions

EFSS is about file sync and share. Sync moves files from point to point so they can be shared later. File sharing is about collaboration. OpenStack Swift can be the backend storage service where the files stay. Gladinet Cloud Enterprise is the user-facing front end providing the sync and share capability.

In sharing and collaboration, one of the most required feature is permission control, meaning who can access what files and folders. This video demonstrates OpenStack EFSS solution with file permission controls.

Team Folder

Team folder is like network share, in that you can assign read/write permission to different people.
