Cloud based backup solutions based on open standards?
- by Rick
I am looking for a solution to backup and consolidate important media from a couple Windows laptops and Mac laptop.
I would like a solutions that based on open standards, so my data isn't trapped by proprietary formats and proprietary protocols. I would like the ability to switch clients or change providers in the future.
For example, something like Jungle Disk plus S3 sounds like a great option. However, I am having trouble confirming how or if this can be setup meeting this criteria.
Are there any real or de-facto standards for treating S3 as a filesystem? If so, what Windows and Mac clients support these standards?
