ZFS Filesystem
The rsync.net cloud storage platform is built on the ZFS filesystem - the state of the art in resiliency and data integrity.
Our raidz3 arrays have a 99.9999% resiliency with single location storage - and dual location is also available.
Point-in-time snapshots of your rsync.net account are created and rotated for you, allowing you to go browse "back in time".
rsync.net can provide Petabytes of storage in a single namespace for your backups.
SSH Accessible
Any tool based on SSH or SFTP will work perfectly at rsync.net.
We offer explicit support for borg, arq, git-annex, BackupAssist, Syncovery, WinSCP and Filezilla ... but ANY SSH tool will work.
Further, you can execute unix commands over SSH to perform complex and useful tasks on your data here at rsync.net.
SSH is encrypted and is the de facto standard for secure data transfer in cloud computing.
Our global network runs at 10 gigabit speed and is ipv6 accessible.
UNIX Native
rsync.net cloud storage works just like you'd expect it to.
You can integrate rsync.net with your existing Linux/UNIX/OSX systems in minutes - possibly with no software installation.
You can pipeline output to us, run remote commands over SSH and manipulate your data with common unix primitives.
We believe in the UNIX philosophy and we want rsync.net to be a simple primitive that you can quickly plug into your workflow.
What Makes rsync.net Special
We are the only cloud storage provider that gives customers a UNIX filesystem to do what they want with.
We are NOT reselling another cloud - we built our own infrastructure and have complete control over our platform.
Our ZFS platform provides resiliency and allows clients to configure point-in-time snapshots that are immutable.
We have a world class, IPV6-capable network with locations in three US cities as well as Zurich and Hong Kong.
You will receive unlimited, free technical support, over phone and email, for any use you make of our product.
We offer customizable monitoring and alerts, free of charge, using email, SMS, Pushover and webhook calls.
We've been doing this since 2001.
