Lately I've been trying to get my hands on an open sourced software that allows one to build a private cloud for free and I've not been all out of luck.
I did come across a few softwares (like XEN, Eucalyptus, etc) that serve this purpose well but sadly they either require a Linux operating system to run or are too complicated for amateurs like me.
I want to build a private cloud for my college where students can save and share all their important documents. I'd like to know if there are any software solutions which may help me out with this at minimum possible cost. I know it might be too much to ask but can you guys even review or maybe explain one of these software (which can run on Windows as well) in one of your articles because honestly even though I have read about them in some tech gazettes I think I'm addicted to your style of explaining tech stuff.
So, to sum it up, if someone could write an article on one such software, it would be just too awesome. But if that's not possible, any assistance on this issue would be much appreciated.
