Storage
rclone, the open source program and web GUI that copies, syncs, moves and mounts your files across dozens of cloud and object storage services.
Overview
rclone is an open source command line program, often called the swiss army knife of cloud storage, that manages files on more than seventy storage backends including Amazon S3, Azure Blob Storage, Google Drive and Cloud Storage, Backblaze B2, Dropbox, SFTP and WebDAV. It copies, syncs, moves and deletes files between any two of them, verifies every transfer with checksums, preserves timestamps, resumes interrupted transfers, and can copy server side so data moves directly between providers without passing through the machine. It can also mount a remote as a local filesystem and serve one over HTTP, WebDAV, FTP or S3. This image adds the rclone remote control daemon and its built in web GUI, so the whole tool is drivable from a browser as well as the shell: you add your remotes, then run transfers and jobs and watch them from the dashboard.
Why the cloudimg image
The daemon has no login of its own, so cloudimg never exposes it directly. It is bound to the loopback interface and reached only through a reverse proxy that demands a password, and that password is generated fresh on every instance at first boot and written to a file only root can read, so nothing usable is baked into the image and no two instances share a secret. The reverse proxy stays shut until that first boot password exists, so it never serves before the credential is in place. No cloud provider account, remote or token is baked into the image: you configure your own remotes, and their secrets live in a config file owned by the service account. Every deployment is fully patched at build time with unattended security updates left enabled, and comes with a paired deploy guide and 24/7 cloudimg support.
Common uses
- Migrate or replicate data between cloud and object storage providers
- Back up servers and files to object storage on a schedule
- Mount remote storage as a local drive or browse it from a web dashboard
