Distributed cloud storage? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago

This is very close to what I was looking for.

I am going to try this and Tahoe-LAFS for a future extension of the service to a small local network.

Thanks for the suggestions

Yes file access through the network and the web (https or something better).

I understand that a self-hosted Nextcloud istance is still my best option.

I will restore it but in the mean time also try some of the other suggestions here.

thanks

Well I may have tinkered too much with my server.

I have no real problem with Nextcloud, I have been using it for the last five years.

I have been hosting it on a RaspberryPi3 and well the machine isn't the most powerful out there.

So taking advantage of this sudden break I have been looking for a serverless alternative.

Ok I'll take a look at it. Thanks!

Uhm what I meant is this:

Say I have a file in machine A. This software should be able to tell to machine B that A has the file and retrieve after an explicit request from B.

Probably my wording wasn't the best.

I hope now it is clear what I was trying to ask :-)

Distributed cloud storage? (lemmy.ml)

Hello!

I recently had issues with my self-hosted instance of Nextcloud so I started looking for an alternative to it.

I would like something that could allow me to make a local network of shared files between devices I choose, if that makes any sense.

I stumbled upon Syncthing but it doesen't seem what I had in mind: I understand that it replicates folders between devices, but I am looking for a way to distribuite files between machines. Again, like Nextcloud but without a central server to rely to.

Do you know if something of that sort exists?

Or if you have any other solution?

Thank you.

P.S. I am posting it here because it seems like some sort of self-hosting, but maybe I will cross-post it to the decentralized comunity.
