Is open source really required? We at Haystack Software make a backup app (Arq) with client-side encryption that doesn't require any server side code (it supports a number of cloud providers' APIs). We don't publish the app&#

Arq supports coldline now. It also helps with creating buckets and choosing from among the new regional and multi-regional storage classes.

Yes. I work on a backup app (Arq) that encrypts before uploading the data.

Fixed now. Sorry. The load from HN was too much for a while.

We're sending Arq 5 license codes to all lifetime purchasers. Sorry for the delay. If you don't get one today please email support@arqbackup.com.

We upgraded all Arq 4 purchases in the prior 90 days to Arq 5 for free. We even converted the per-computer licenses to per-user licenses, so if you bought licenses for 3 computers, you now have Arq 5 licenses for 3 users.

Yes. I just added that to the announcement post. It stores stuff in sqlite databases that are a lot smaller.

Sorry about that. Should work now.

It needs updating for Arq 5. I'm working on right now.

It's also versioned backup, like Time Machine. Not just a clone of the latest.

Bah, I guess hosting a site at digitalocean isn't suitable for HN front page? Even WP super cache isn't saving me.

True! It uses sqlite databases (finally). (I work at Haystack Software :)

I think it's that those are the only businesses you hear about in the press.

I just read this interview with Brunello Cucinelli and found it inspiring. "In this company, you cannot send emails after 5:30 PM, when the company closes for the evening. The day after, when you turn up for work, what are you like? Yo

Agree. And a business that's a "nice place to work" for awesome people is hard to find I think. If you've made one of those it'd be hard for employees to find one elsewhere.

Being overtired can have 1 positive effect: you get out of your own head and come up with creative solutions that you wouldn't have dreamed up otherwise. Works for me sometimes.

[I'm the guy behind Arq] What's buggy? I'd love to fix it.

In C:\ProgramData\Arq\keychain.

Don't know enough about what you're describing. If you can mount Hubic as a drive, then maybe mount it to your Mac, and then tell Arq to SFTP to localhost. (Backing up to a local folder is on the to-do list but the SFTP approach i

It's always been nice'd to the lowest possible priority. It's on my to-do list to figure out how to make it not spin your fans up. Sorry about it.

Yes, working with Amazon on it.

by sreitshamer 11y ago
Not right now, sorry.

by sreitshamer 11y ago
Don't know, sorry. Haven't gotten that many requests for it and lots of other stuff on the list.
87.
by sreitshamer 11y ago
As soon as possible. It's high priority on the to-do list.

by sreitshamer 11y ago
Ys, it's on the to-do list.

I'm adding support for this to Arq (my backup app) right now. Unlimited backups for $5/month with no data transfer fees sounds awesome to me!
