At first glance, SeaTable looks like an Excel spreadsheet, but it is as powerful as a database. In this presentation I will show you with concrete examples how seatable positions itself in comparison to Excel and a traditional SQL database.
After this presentation you will understand what kind of tasks you can perform with SeaTable and the limitations that can prevent you from using...
CS3APIs started out as a means to offer seamless integration of applications and storage providers, to solve the issue of fragmentation of services. Its reference implementation - Reva, has evolved over time to effortlessly allow plugging in numerous authentication mechanisms, storage mounts and application handlers through dynamic rule-based registries. As an Interoperability Platform REVA...
Today's organisations are increasingly looking for tools which allow their members to communicate with one another while collaborating online.
And while some are focused on trying to get various solutions to talk to one another, there are several advantages in using an integrated solution such as Nextcloud Talk on top of an existing Nextcloud instance.
This contribution describes the integration of CodiMD, a popular markdown nodejs-based editor, in CERNBox.
CodiMD is the open-sourced version of a cloud service run by HackMD.io. Designed to store users' content in a relational database and blobs in a filesystem-based or cloud (e.g. S3) storage, there is no provision for interfacing external storages. But thanks to its open REST API, it is...
- Distribution of container images: From tiny deployments to massive analysis on the grid.
In recent years the use of containers proliferated to the point that they are now the de-facto standard to package and run modern applications. A crucial role in the successful distribution of container images is played by container registries, specialized repositories meant to store container...
To make clients pick up changes to a shared file the etag of all recipients root folders needs to be updated. The current implementation in OCIS jails shares into a /Shares folder to calculate a dynamic etag, based on all accepted shares. This multiplies the stat requests made to the underlying storage system by the number of shares on every propfind. By letting the storage registry cache...
