We are launching soon (this is in private beta for 3 months)
YobiDrive:


If you need collaborative PKI encryption, smart access right
management, fully elastic storage with NO SQL db at all, S3 and folder
structure support, and optional
multiple indexes on your KV... contact us for more info.

At a glance:


- Fully based on Voldemort, fully elastic
- Owns its disk storage manager DiskMap, designed to be super fast
with low memory/huge disk machines, and designed to group file chunks
naturally on the disks, to get the best of both worlds (fast random
access, and fast full file read)
- Implements S3, but could also replace simple db: we have our own
BTree implementation, fully elastic, with no need for a subkey like in
Dynamo DB. Just missing the SQL layer...
- Fully replication friendly, with last modification based indexes
- Fully collaborative PKI AES/RSA encryption, of blobs, blob names,
metadata, users... even BTree indexes ! Local keys, key consignation
with OTP, TP certificates... we will have all options.
- Flat mode (like S3) and REAL folder tree mode, with possibility to
rename and move folders
- Possibility to open the e-Safe door (and keep it open) with a
mobile
APP, while browsing with a basic S3 client like CyberDuck
- Collaborative and folder structure features that make the usage of a
SQL db irrelevant:
our pro file sharing app runs on our Y3 API, with no additional
servers
- Possibility to dedicate entry processing points to customers
with high bandwith constraints
- Reconfigurable workflow engine, for business oriented simple file/
data workflow: design your business file app with your point of view,
and focus on client app/web app dev.
- And many utility features (queued mail manager with web
beacons, ...) for removing any need for a server.


Why Voldemort: simple enough to be tweaked for our needs (storage,
operations), java based for a single build, Vector clocks for
synchronization of fully elastic (no server dependency via a subkey)
processes (like processing queues), data and index structures. At the
end, one build, specialized as a pure storage node or a processing
proxy, does it all: one component to manage, just firewall and load
balancers upfront, for a better TCO.

Official launch this summer!

Here is the blog, more coming soon

http://www.yobidrive.com/blog

Launched this month in two tier IV datacenters with 10Gb interlink, by
an operator certified and audited by the Luxembourg Financial Sector
Regulation authorities. Because AES/RSA or any system is pointless if
not operated by a trusted party.

Awesome, good luck. May be we can collaborate and strengthen each
other.... It is good to have both comercial and OSS super-scalable and
secure storage solutions available. IMO we are after the same thing:
more privacy than many other providers offer their users.

Agreed. And today this is a key feature, tomorrow this will be a
prerequisite.
