Simplified Secure Storage
The Bitcasa Secure Storage API enables apps to become a part of users everyday digital life. With more than 35 petabytes of user files under management, developers can also reach a whole new audience to help organize, share, and stream users digital content.
Key features of the API include:
* Storage - A secure and device-independent storage layer that focuses on organizing, sharing, and discovering personal content across all devices
* Security - Designed using encrypted block-based storage with AES-256 encryption, Bitcasa ensures complete user privacy
* Access & Sharing - Any uploaded content is immediately available on all devices without syncing. Upload once, then access and share instantly
* Instant Streaming - Optimized for media streaming, Bitcasa allows any content to be streamed without having to download first. A familiar file and folder organization allows content to be streamed in their native format
* Availability - SDKs will be available for Java, Python, PHP, Ruby, and .NET
API Possibilities:
From productivity apps to media streaming, Bitcasa enables your apps to better connect users with their favorite content. Here are examples of what Bitcasa's partners are doing with the Secure Storage API:
* Plex Cloud Sync - A media app that manages all of your personal media, Plex Cloud Sync is using Bitcasa as part of its Cloud Sync media storage and streaming solution. Users can stream their movies, photos and music to any device without the hassles of proxies and firewalls.
* Kloudless - A cloud storage service that integrates Gmail with Outlook, Kloudless has created a Bitcasa plugin that enables the secure storage and automated management of email attachments. By giving users access to cloud storage from within their email inboxes, Kloudless makes it easy and intuitive to securely share cloud files.
* Otixo - A service that aggregates many popular cloud services into a single app for managing files, Otixo is integrating the new API to create Otixo "Spaces." This enables users to easily share, track and comment across files and folders with multiple people.
Taptich added, "Our unique approach to secure cloud storage provides a great platform to build on, and we anticipate many will use our API to deliver new personal productivity, media, and collaborative applications."
The Bitcasa Secure Storage API will initially be available in open beta form, with general availability expected in Q1 2014. Developers interested in registering for the Developers Program open beta can visit website.
