OpenCloud Federation
Implement Open Cloud Mesh Specification in OpenCloud
Open Cloud Mesh (OCM) is a upcoming IETF internet standard enabling file sharing across different hosted file storage solutions. Similar to how email federates, it lets users on any compliant hosting solution exchange files and collaborate - without vendor lock-in. The project supports the standardisation effort by contributing to the IETF standards process, creating a reference implementation of both the backend and frontend of the specification in the filecloud system “OpenCloud", and providing a robust testing framework, ensuring cross-cloud file sharing.
