Security appliance maker Barracuda Networks has agreed to marry its online file-sharing service to storage biz Drobo’s box of hard drives called 5N.
People can upload and download files to and from Barracuda’s Copy cloud, and share their data between desktop computers, iPhones, iPads, iPods, Android devices and Microsoft’s Surface slabs. The accompanying app and basic service offers 5GB of space for free. There are also group sharing functions.
Now Drobo, as part of today’s announced partnership, will plug its 5N desktop filer into Copy’s systems: each box will be able to extend its local storage and document sharing into the Barracuda cloud and back up its data to the remote service. An app for the 5N that can access Copy will ship in March — via redwolf.newsvine.com
