Unilium

The inspiration for the patent pending technology behind Unilium came from the desire to have a central, reliable place, to store all files without having to rely on a single service provider (like Amazon or Google). As storage capacities of hard drives increase, there’s no reason they shouldn’t be usable as personal cloud storage in addition to or instead of online storage. Also, online providers come and go, so there should be no reason to explicitly depend on a single provider. Unilium addresses all of these requirements by making storage providers pluggable and creating a virtual file system on top of arbitrary storage. Unilium goes many steps further than simply combining storage; it provides file versioning and a highly reliable design that enables data to be corrupted and still be able to retrieve file data. Compression is supported as is differential compression, so that if the same file is added to the system, no additional storage is used.
