STORAGE MADE EASY FOR OPENSTACK
The Storage Made Easy (SME) Cloud File Server is a comprehensive Enterprise File
Synchronization and Sharing (EFSS) solution built on top of the SME revolutionary Cloud
Control Gateway. Today, corporate IT is trying to embrace the influx of cloud storage
brought on by the adoption of the cloud and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD).
The SME Cloud Control Gateway allows IT to control access to OpenStack and transform
it into a drop box style solution. The SME Cloud File Server layers collaboration,
synchronization, governance, BYOD, audit, security, encryption, back-up and migration
capabilities on top of OpenStack to give organizations an enterprise grade EFSS
solution.

OpenStack is becoming the most foremost deployed Private Cloud Storage solution in
the world. It is already being used in many small and large companies throughout the
world.
With more data being shared outside of companies there are more concerns becoming
apparent about who has access to data that is stored remotely and when they had
access. Storage Made Easy extends the use of OpenStack in 5 critical areas:
1. Enabling sensitive data to be encrypted with a private key prior to being stored
on OpenStack. The private key is then needed before the file can be retrieved and
viewed.
2. Enabling share data to have file sharing policies in which, for example, a
password has to be assigned and / or links are set to be time expired.
This feature can work not only from the web but also with an Add-In integration directly
in Microsoft Outlook. A similar add-in integration for Mac users that use OpenStack
extends Mac Mail with similar controls to the Outlook Add-In.

3. Full file event auditing is provided to enable companies to have complete audit
logs for all file events including remote file IP’s etc of users who downloaded
documents and users who shared documents and controls to set GEO location
restrictions.
4. Enabling key data to be backed up to OpenStack easily.
This provides a mechanism to backup infrequently used files to cheaper storage options
or to keep copies of files available in the event of disaster recovery.

5. Audit Watch
Cloud administrators can set up an Audit Watch on files which enables them to be
informed in real time of any file activity on any file or combination of files, or even a
folder, that is stored on OpenStack. Once the designated file event takes place the
administrator will receive an alert informing them of the event and which user invoked
the event.
This can be extremely useful to keep informed of file access, changes, sharing or
downloads on any type of file.

OpenStack does not support WebDav, FTP, or SFTP by default but Storage Made Easy adds
these features making it easy to interact with OpenStack or share data using common
protocols.
As an example Lush, the global cosmetics manufacturer uses SME with OpenStack in
over 50 countries to provide a global Enterprise File Share and Sync Solution (EFSS).

Secure links to OpenStack files can be done directly from Microsoft Outlook and Mac
Mail, or new files can be uploaded from the desktop directly to OpenStack and shared as
a link. All such files shared in this manner are audited and can be password protected
and time expired.

OpenStack files and private data shares (CIFS / NFS / NAS / SAN) can be united in a
single interface for anywhere access through desktop cloud drives and mobile devices.
Although Storage Made Easy functions as a Cloud Gateway companies can still take
advantage of uploading files direct to OpenStack as the Gateway will ‘discover’ and
index these files on demand. Also note that no files are stored on the Gateway. It does
not replicate data, it indexes data about the files including location to download.

OpenStack can end up storing a lot of structured documents such as Word, Powerpoint,
Excel, and PDF files. As part of the Storage Made Easy solution a Cloud Content
Connector can be used that indexes data remotely stored on OpenStack so that file
searches can be conducted on content.
