With more than 950,000 users worldwide, ownCloud offers the ease-of-use, flexibility, sophistication and security unmatched by basic consumer-grade syncing apps and third-party storage. ownCloud Enterprise Edition becomes part of the existing infrastructure because it can be deployed fully on-premise, integrating into existing user directories, governance processes, security, monitoring, storage and back-up tools. And because ownCloud is open source and open by nature, plug-in apps extend ownCloud out of the box, enabling file versioning, file sharing, external file system mounts and much more. If additional applications or capabilities are needed, enterprises can easily extend ownCloud via an enhanced application plug-in architecture, and add it to their ownCloud server.

Latest ownCloud Enterprise Edition Features

The latest ownCloud Enterprise Edition builds on the recently released ownCloud
Community Edition with:

Security:

• Improved Active Directory (AD) and LDAP integration: Support for multiple LDAP and AD directories enhances authentication performance.
• AES encryption at rest: Files are now even more secure, with native at-rest encryption provided by ownCloud on whatever backend storage system the enterprise chooses.
Integration:
• Provisioning API: User provisioning can now be integrated into existing data center automation tools.
• Enhanced external storage app: Integrate existing file stores because ownCloud provides a single interface for user access to all of their documents.
• Home directory integration: Integrate ownCloud with existing user home directories via CIFS or NFS, making sync and share a seamless extension of existing user storage.
Usability:
• Deleted Files: Restore deleted files and folders without the intervention of the administrator.
• Anonymous Upload: Collaboration with partners and contractors is now much easier, and can be managed, fully logged and audited by IT.
• Interface: Manage files and accounts in a simplified interface, for better account identification, and a simplified plug-in application settings panel.

ownCloud is Certified for the Enterprise

Upon launch of ownCloud Community edition, ownCloud Inc. begins certification tests of the Community Edition, desktop clients and mobile apps. The company then enhances the enterprise software, upgrading it to take advantage of the new features, making it all function properly together as an integrated unit. Finally, the company works on packaging and tests the ownCloud installation and upgrade process so that by the time the company releases the latest ownCloud Enterprise Edition, it is certified and ready for enterprise production environments.

OwnCloud Enterprise also supports the Community Edition features:

• New antivirus: Scan uploaded files using ClamAV, to prevent automated distribution of infected files.
• Display name: Create display names to simplify the collaborative e experience.
• Improved versioning: Automatically manage versions on the server.
• Capability API: Make calls to the server and learn which capabilities, or apps, are installed and working.
• Improved file cache: Provide greater flexibility and greater performance (up to 500% faster).

Access to ownCloud stored content is provided via a web browser, desktop syncing apps for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, and mobile apps for Android and iOS mobile devices. ownCloud also supports WebDAV access for other standards-based tools.
