Tahoe-lafs: open source, secure, decentralized, fault-tolerant filesystem
- kragen 17y agoThis kind of thing is increasingly important for the future of the network — whether you're storing your files in a warehouse-scale computer or a netbook, automatic redundancy is mandatory. Tahoe is a particularly important experiment because it shows how to get that kind of redundancy in a distributed environment without a central authority.
