-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 +++ Mayuresh [17-Nov-2013 20:51 +0530] | Looking for online storage options with following perspective: | | - Main purpose - backup. | | - For use with Linux / NetBSD, preferably NFS mountable, less preferably | sshfs mountable or at least rsync-able. | | - Sharing contents with others over internet is NOT my requirement | | - Connectivity with mobile devices (or platforms like Android) is NOT a | requirement. | | - Plain simple storage service. No bells and whistles like webui, drag and | drop and all that is necessary.
I suppose most of the services have API or FUSE or WebDAV export. | (For above 3 points, if they just come with a service, I won't reject the | service for that. Just that I don't need them.) | | - Reliable uptime. Will be synced at least daily. Following backup services may be useful. - - https://www.dropbox.com/ (API: https://www.dropbox.com/developers) - - https://app.box.com/ (supports WebDAV, API: http://developers.box.com/) - - http://copy.com/ (API: https://www.copy.com/developer) - - http://spideroak.com/ (API: https://spideroak.com/code) - - https://cloud.google.com/products/cloud-storage (API: https://developers.google.com/storage/index) | - (Storage level) encryption necessary: May have sensitive contents. spideroak - https://spideroak.com/privacypost/ For other services you may have to do the encryption at your end. | - Free/paid, both ok. I'll assess price suitability separately. | | - I haven't arrived at exact space requirements. Roughly it might begin | with say 10 GB and may grow in future. | | - Preferably some time trusted service or a brand that can be trusted for | A. data security and B. will last long. | | Hope this is not too much to ask for and such services are available.
