Online storage providers are handing out free storage like candy. Add them all up and soon you’re talking about a serious amount of space. So let’s have some fun by turning ten different online storage providers into a single data grid which is secure, robust, and distributed. We call this grid a BRIC (Bunch of Redundant Independent Clouds).
The BRIC solution presented here will use the open source project Tahoe-LAFS to perform the RAID like function of striping data across different storage providers. Here’s how Tahoe-LAFS describes itself:
Tahoe-LAFS is a Free and Open cloud storage system. It distributes your data across multiple servers. Even if some of the servers fail or are taken over by an attacker, the entire filesystem continues to function correctly, including preservation of your privacy and security.
