Introduction

StackSync is a Dropbox-like open source synchronization tool that runs on top of OpenStack Swift. StackSync is specially designed to take care of organizations real needs with features like scalability, openness, security and the typical ease of use offered by personal clouds.

In general terms, StackSync can be divided into three main blocks: clientssynchronization service(a.k.a. Synchronization service), and the storage back-end. An overview of the architecture with the main components and their interaction is shown in the figure below.

 

 

As we can see in the figure above, the storage back-end is separated from the rest of the architecture by a line. This means that StackSync can be used with external storage back-ends such as Amazon S3 or RackSpace. This enables StackSync to fit different organization and be offered in three different configurations:

  • Public Cloud. Data and metadata is stored in a public storage provider such as Amazon or Rackspace.
  • Private Cloud. StackSync is installed on-premise. Data and metadata is stored on the company’s infrastructure.
  • Hybrid Cloud. Data is stored in a public storage provider and metadata is kept inside the company’s infrastructure. This allows organizations that sensible information is stored on-premise, while raw data is stored encrypted on a third-party storage service.
