* Package name : tahoe-lafs Version : 1.16.0rc0 Upstream Author : The Tahoe-LAFS Software Foundation * URL : http://tahoe-lafs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ * License : GPL-2+ with several exceptions or TGPPL1+ Programming Lang: Python Description : Secure distributed file store Tahoe, the Least Authority File Store, is a distributed filesystem that features high reliability, strong security properties, and a fine-grained sharing model. Files are encrypted, signed, erasure-coded, then distributed over multiple servers, such that any (configurable) subset of the servers will be sufficient to recover the data. The default 3-of-10 configuration tolerates up to 7 server failures before data becomes unrecoverable. . Tahoe offers "provider-independent security": the confidentiality and integrity of your data do not depend upon the behavior of the servers. The use of erasure-coding means that reliability and availability depend only upon a subset of the servers. . Tahoe files are accessed through a RESTful web API, a human-oriented web server interface, and CLI tools. Reintroducing tahoe-lafs which was removed earlier because it did not support python3. Also filing it on behalf of my colleague. (who is marked owner)
