玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale has come a long way since its first official tech preview release in December 2020. Up until now, there have been 14 tech preview releases with lots of new features and improvements . In this post, we want to give you a roundup as well as an outlook on the shape of things to come. As a cloud-native platform, 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale embraces open standards and relies on the microservice architecture. And of course, 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale is fully Open Source, released under the Apache 2.0 license while 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Web is released under the AGPL license.
The timeline
We plan to release a beta for 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale in Q1 2022, probably in February. We look forward to reach general availability in Q2 2022. At that stage, 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale will be a solid, mature Content Collaboration Platform that’s easy to deploy, performant, efficient, scalable and extensible, with a future-proof architecture. There is a transition strategy from 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Classic towards 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale, as outlined by our Product Manager Patrick Maier at the 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Conference 2021. You can re-watch the segment here and learn more about migration in the docs . In the months since the initial tech preview release, the first production deployment has gone online to great success, for example at our partner CERN (see https://owncloud.com/news/owncloud-infinite-scale-live-at-cern/ ). The documentation at owncloud.dev/ocis already contains the most important information for admins.
Improvements since the initial release
玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale handles authentication through any Identity Provider compatible with OpenID Connect. For authentication functionality out of the box, it comes with Kopano Konnect. For storage, 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale already offers storage drivers for POSIX (local storage / NFS) and S3. A lot of smaller features are also already available, such as file integrity checking using checksums, downloading multiple files at once as archives, sharing with groups and quota support.
Features and integrations for smooth productivity
To simplify longer-term collaboration in teams and projects, will be soon introducing the Spaces feature. Spaces are dedicated storage areas uncoupled from individual users to enable productive teamwork and lighten the workload for admins. We recently added support for external viewers and editors through the open-standard WOPI interface to 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale, supporting a wide range of popular browser-based productivity suites like Collabora Online, OnlyOffice, CodiMD and Microsoft Office Online Server.
New view
For 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale, we have developed a new browser frontend called 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Web. Since the initial release, we have also made this single-view web app available as an extension for the php-based 玩嘉电竞下载注册, which we now call 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Classic. See the documentation on how to setup up 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Web with 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Classic . 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Web brings comprehensive branding/theming support and is fully translatable through Transifex . It also pushes the envelope on accessibility; 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Web can be fully navigated by keyboard, pack screenreader support and focus management. It is currently being certified for WCAG and BITV compliance. With improved dependency handling, 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Web is very efficient and loads really fast. It fetches elements like thumbnails and avatars asynchronously, using pagination to limit the number of elements. It caches images and avoids loading resources more than once.
More performance
As mentioned above, despite all of these new features, we managed to reduce the memory consumption in 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale by a factor of 24 in this past year. The dynamic service registry makes sure that services find each other and work with one another automatically to make distributed, scale-out environments are a lot easier to handle. 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale now has API parity with 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Classic. Continuous performance tests based on real-world examples have led us to find a number of bottlenecks that we were able to solve – we employ OpenTelemetry to trace requests through the whole stack.
What’s ahead
In the coming months, we will focus on what 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Infinite Scale now still needs to be ready for the big stage. In particular, we are working on the event system, notifications, auditing, search and integrated user management . For 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Web, we will focus on usability, the URLs, the new Spaces feature, the user management interface and the grid view.
