Unleash the Power of OpenStack Swift

OpenStack Object Storage Service (OpenStack Swift) is an object storage service that provides scalability, data availability, security, and performance in a private cloud deployment. Unleash the power of OpenStack Swift as a corporate cloud file server with remote access via desktop drives, secure file sharing via web browser, and accompanied by mobile apps on iOS and Android devices.

Simplify User Training

Every mobile worker knows about mapping local drives to access a central file server. A cloud drive provides the same user experience in the Mac Finder and saves time and money on user training.

Reduce Costs

A cloud drive supports on-demand access, so MacBooks with smaller SSD drives can see the full scope of the shared cloud drive without having to store 100% of the cloud drive's content locally. It doesn't force mobile workers to upgrade their MacBooks and save money.

Best of Both Worlds

Combines the security and control of Windows file servers with the ease of use and productivity of the cloud with cloud drive access.

Permission Control

Has a simpler strategy for migrating and configuring permissions than SharePoint, Dropbox or Google Drive - inherits them directly from the file server.

Endpoint Protection

Add cloud backup capabilities to back up local folders from Mac to a central cloud file server and on to OpenStack Swift.

File Locking

File locking is important on a cloud drive for multi-user collaboration.

OpenStack Swift Cloud Drive Client Agent Features

Once the Mac client agent software is deployed on the user's Mac, the cloud drive will appear in the Mac Finder like a pluggable external drive with the following features.

MOBILE ACCESS

Simplify remote access to file shares with familiar interfaces on any computer or device. On Windows and Mac desktops, mapped drives appear natively in Explorer and Finder. The same experience is presented on iOS and Android devices such as iPads, iPhones, and Android devices.

COLLABORATION

Easily collaborate with business partners by giving them access to a limited set of internal files or folders. Share folders online with non-AD users while maintaining administrative control. Simplify cross-site collaboration with automatic version controls and file locking.

REDUCE COSTS

Eliminate the overhead and support tickets typically associated with VPN file sharing, Always On VPN, or direct access. Automatically use existing users and permissions to save time and money during setup. Leverage the bandwidth of the OpenStack data center for more speed and time.

SYNCHRONIZATION

Mapped drives show directory structure but delay downloads until a file is used to reduce bandwidth usage and storage consumption. Laptops with small SSD drives work well.

DATA SECURITY

Files are secured at rest and in transit with military grade encryption, secure connections and more. Automatically use existing users and permissions to save setup time and money.

PRODUCTIVITY

Provide an always-on mapped drive that works anywhere on any device and allows mobile users to easily access folders on the internal file shares over HTTPS and without using a VPN.

QUICK UPLOAD

For large files that has minor local modifications, binary differential blocks will be calculated and the different blocks will be uploaded instead of the while file to save bandwidth and save time.

ENCRYPTION

For files sitting in the local file cache, encryption is available to protect these files that has been downloaded to local cache. Without a successful login, these files will stay encrypt-at-rest.

AUDIT TRACE

Audit traces and file change history logs are available to analyze who, at what time, changed which files on the local machine or moved files and folders from which source to which destination.

Folder Synchronization

Cloud drive mapper and folder synchronization work hand-in-hand to provide additional business continuity capabilities for business users. Synchronize the on-premises "Documents" folder with the enterprise cloud file server backed by private OpenStack Swift for easy offline editing and with endpoint backup.

Check out the following folder synchronization features!

Offline Editing

Local files can be read and modified when the MacBook is not online.

Version Control

Version control can be used to resolve conflicts with offline editing mode.

Endpoint Backup

Folders from edge device can be backed up to central corporate file servers.

Cloud Backup

Shared folders on the file server network can be backed up to private cloud storage accounts.

Reverse Synchronization

Files and folders in the cloud can be reverse-synced to the local device to create a local backup.

Conflict Detection

The synchronization folder is subject to version control for conflict detection.
