Infinite Scale
Store, Share, Work: Fast, Secure and Flexible
Infinite Scale – Functions and Features
Infinite Scale is a complete modernization of ownCloud 10 with a new and modern 3-tier architecture and many improvements for users and administrators. It’s compatible with ownCloud 10, shares its core features and adds both speed, efficiency, scalability and extended functionality. As a multi-cloud and multi-purpose platform, it helps companies and organizations control, manage and secure data. On top of that, the new version also brings lots of usability improvements in link and file sharing and allows working in Spaces – a completely new collaboration concept for productively and person-independent working of with files.
Improve your Workflows and Collaboration with Spaces
Spaces as one elementary feature of Infinite Scale will boost your collaboration, save money and significantly reduce administrative overhead while improving compliance, control and security. Spaces are as simple as folders, but extremely powerful and flexible data rooms (vaults) for project and team collaboration. In Spaces, your files are not tied to single user or group accounts anymore. Spaces will significantly reduce the workload of your administrators, increase the performance and continuity of your teams and speed up the onboarding of new employees or partners, both internal and external. At the same time Spaces can simplify your data store, help protect your company, organization or institution from data loss and increase your compliance, workflows and many more. This fundamental shift of paradigm only becomes possible because of the completely new architecture under the hood of Infinite Scale.
Increase Efficiency, Usability and Reduce Cost
As its name says, Infinite Scale brings flexibility in classical or federated network setups to new levels, allowing infinite scalability, integrating data fabrics, networks and clouds of all sizes. The new cloud-native approach with Go, Microservices and a new vue.js webinterface helps reduce cost for both deployment and maintenance, while at the same time allowing the integration of any kind of data sources of any size and distribution. Users enjoy concepts like spaces for sharing data and collaboration in new and visionary ways, while always being in full control over links and files they share and shared, both in on-premises, hybrid or public cloud scenarios.
A Focus on Users and Metadata
With Infinite Scale, the consumer is taking over the central role – which is exactly what Infinite Scale is addressing. As a cloud-native platform, its modern architecture serves this new data consumption model by providing Data Management as a Service (DMaaS) with a unified access to data through APIs across all your data silos, with multiple, individual storage backends if needed. Infinite Scale is designed to connect these storage backends and provides a unifi ed data access layer on top of the storage. This allows to consolidate any existing data (silos) sources, thus securing customers previously made investments into data repositories.
