TahoeLAFSNotes
(revision 1) (raw view)
[[http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs][Tahoe-LAFS]] is described as "the first decentralized storage system with provider-independent security". Its name indicates that it's a "file system" but it works differently than traditional file systems in ways that are important to understand before you start using it. This doc will try to explain at a high level, in plain English, how Tahoe-LAFS works and provide links that will allow you to learn about it in detail. Before we go any further, please read the [[http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/docs/about.rst][one-page summary]], then come back here. That page indicated that Tahoe-LAFS provides a guarantee that you can store your data on servers that you don't trust, and the administrators of those servers won't be able to read your data. That's a very cool feature!
