ownCloud, csync

KDE那帮人觉得Dropbox不错于是搞了个山寨品 ownCloud.org 。我很是喜欢。

其中双向同步的关键核心组件是 csync,看了下,是OpenSUSE一帮人搞的类unison工具。

unison/csync 区别在于:

csync is a bidirectional file synchronizer like unison. csync is written in C and not in ocaml. So it can be used by PAM (pam_csync) or you can write a GUI for it (this is a future plan). csync is a client only file synchronizer and doesn’t need a daemon running on the other system. Unison needs to be installed and running on both systems.

希望csync能用上rsync的差分复制算法。这样就完美了。

关于ownCloud,赞美+吐槽几点:

希望能加几点:

有点心痒痒想跳进这个坑啦。非常有趣的项目。总的来说,ownCloud前途无量。他们也有商业版本 ownCloud.com。这个模式很好,可以说潜能是是把云计算真正做到了消费者零售这个级别。
