Owncloud Deployment Recommendations ownCloud Deployment Recommendations What is the best way to install and maintain ownCloud? The answer to that is “it depends” because every ownCloud customer has their own particular needs and IT infrastructure. ownCloud and the LAMP stack are highly-configurable, so we will present three typical scenarios and make best-practice recommendations for both software and hardware.

  • Case 2016-01: Getting Licensing Right at Owncloud
    Getting Licensing Right at ownCloud Case-2016-01-Getting-Licensing-Right On the morning of October 6, 2014, Holger Dyroff, a co-founder of ownCloud Inc., was on his way to an important meeting. While waiting at a red traffic light, he was outlining for him- self the strategy he would be presenting to the other two co-founders of ownCloud. The meet- ing was with Mr. Frank Karlitschek, who had initiated the ownCloud project and was in charge of development, and Mr. Markus Rex, ownCloud’s chief executive officer (CEO). ownCloud Inc. is a software vendor providing a file sync and share software to enterprise cus- tomers and the open source world. The goal of the meeting was to come to a decision about the license of the iOS client, an app that allows users to access their files from mobile Apple devices. Dyroff’s responsibilities at ownCloud included the management and governance of intellectual property and licensing. All three co-founders knew that managing intellectual property correctly was critical for the success of ownCloud. Up until this point, the iOS mobile client had been provided exclusively under a proprietary license, even though the ownCloud software itself was based on open source software. In or- der to be able to distribute the iOS client via Apple’s App Store it was necessary to make the app available under a proprietary license, because Apple did not accept Free/Libre and Open Source Software-licensed programs. Unfortunately, the iOS mobile client not being open source software meant two things. Firstly, the ownCloud executives learned that the iOS client improved significantly slower than own- Cloud’s Android client.

  • Setting up Your Owncloud
    USER GUIDE Setting up your ownCloud Step-by-Step to our ownCloud instance USER GUIDE ― ownCloud offers customers the software and support to create their very own private, on-premises cloud. No more wondering where your data is stored or who may have unauthorized access to your sensi- tive information. With ownCloud, IT is able to maintain full control over all of your company‘s confidential documents, knowing exactly where the data is at all times and deciding who may or may not have access to a certain document or folder. With this document we want to give you an overview on the first steps on how to get started with your ownCloud Appliance. First of all you need a server. For testing purposes, will create a virtual machine that contains all the packages and functionalities we need. The whole thing isn‘t complicated and is done in a few steps. In this testing case we used a MacBook Pro with macOS Sierra 10.12.6. But what is important is not the hardware and the operating system, but the virtual environment. Therefore we start with the instal- lation of VirtualBox. Install VirtualBox Note: If VirtualBox is already installed, you can skip this step. Visit the https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads page and select the appropriate package for your system under VirtualBox ( *.* ) Platform packages. In our case the OS X hosts. The rest is simple: save, run, and install with the default settings. Finished. 2 USER GUIDE HOW TO INSTALL OWNCLOUD Download ownCloud Image Note: If there are problems with the download, please try using another browser.
