RockStor, Inc.

Rockstor, Inc is the company behind the Rockstor open source project, created in 2013. The project aims to democratize the prosumer and small business Storage(Network Attached Storage, i.e., NAS and private cloud storage) with a community focused open source model. We actively maintain the project and offer commercial support and consulting services alongside community support. Our offering is suited for DIY NAS builders in smaller organizations and prosumers who want a self hosted open source solution that is simple to use, manage and maintain, and reap the benefits of cost savings, data security and privacy. Our product, Rockstor, is a Network Attached Storage (NAS) and private cloud storage solution based on advanced Linux technologies like BTRFS, Docker and others. In addition to standard NAS features like file sharing via NFS, Samba, SFTP and AFP, advanced features such as online volume management, CoW Snapshots, asynchronous replication, compression, and bitrot protection are supported based on BTRFS. Rockstor also provides apps like ownCloud, Syncthing, OpenVPN, and Plex to name a few. Apps or "Rock-ons" are powered by a Docker-based application hosting framework. And new ones can be simply added. These Rock-ons, combined with advanced NAS features, turn Rockstor into a private cloud storage solution accessible from anywhere, giving users complete control of cost, ownership, privacy and data security. Rockstor UI is written in Javascript, making it simple to manage everything from your Web browser. The backend is written in Python and exposes RESTful APIs to easily extend functionality!
