#data freedom

When choosing cloud services that will be hosting your data, it's important to think about access to your content, and how you can get it. In the context of a document or management system content will be files and folders, and also things like comments and meta data. 

When  you have uploaded thousand or millions of valuable files and associated metadata to your cloud you need to be able to access it from other apps and get it off if needs be.

We support the Content Management Interoperability Services standard,  CMIS.

CMIS is a new but widely adopted open standard that allows different content management systems to inter-operate over the internet. The CMIS standard is supported by around 20 or more enterprise content management systems (ECMS) like Oracle and Sharepoint.

By supporting the CMIS standard we give our clients complete data freedom to seamlessly move documents, comments, questions and answers, wiki's, discussions etc and their associated meta data.

You can do things like access Projectfusion content from Sharepoint - without getting involved in complex API's or projects.

Mr. Wilder builds communications systems based around Freedom Towers, DIY kits that fit in a suitcase containing everything one would need to set up an ad hoc peer to peer network. The instructions are simple: “Plug it in. Press the big green button.” It creates a local network that stays up no matter what happens to the wider global Internet. All of this is mostly funded through private donations from family, friends, and fellow revolutionaries. Mr. Wilder estimates that the equipment required to assemble a Freedom Tower would have cost over $10,000 as recent as five years ago. Today: $2,000. And it’s completely grid-independent. That means solar powered batteries, a DC power system, a server, a router and a suite of powerful software, all contained in a suitcase.
