I work at a very large enterprise and we've been in need of a cloud storage solution for the enterprise. Not where everyone shares the folder and all files are stored locally, but server-based cloud storage, so multiple servers can synchronize their folders for sharing in the local office. With A/D integration. And granular permissions.
We looked at all the usual suspects: Dropbox, box.net, google, amazon, etc. For some strange reason, no one seems to offer this service except for some niche companies that have immature products. I don't get why these companies aren't aggressively pursuing enterprise services.
- khnd 11y agohave you guys checked out aerofs?
- wbond 11y agoNot sure if it ticks all of the boxes you need, but take a look at Nasuni.
- jacoblane 11y agoegnyte might also be worth a look.
- berntb 11y ago<cough> sshfs... :-) (I know, I'm hellbanned.)
- delecti 11y agoMaybe I'm misunderstanding your needs, but have you considered sharepoint?
- yurisagalov 11y agoHi jayess, Not sure if you're still reading this thread or not, but I'd love to chat with you more and see if we may be able to help you (or you can just sign up at aerofs.com -- we keep it free for up to 30 employees, so you can try us right out). Shoot me an email if you'd like, yuri@aerofs.com
- cjjoseph 11y agoDefinitely worth taking a look at the hybrid solution from Egnyte. Can leverage cloud and on-prem for scaling, performance, etc.
- puttergi 11y agoThanks for the shoutout cjjoseph. I'm a product manager here at Egnyte. The OP's use case is right in Egnyte's sweet spot. Our storage sync technology allows you to synchronize files among multiple on-premises storage servers and the Egnyte cloud. We support granular sub folder permissions and easy AD integration. Your Egnyte account will scale easily to thousands of users and many millions of files/folders. If anyone on this thread has further questions about Egnyte I'd be more than happy to answer them here.
- objectivefs 11y agoHave you checked out ObjectiveFS? It gives you a regular POSIX shared filesystem for your servers. Would be curious to know what you think.
