Federated Core is like a Linux distribution in the cloud. It includes a number of leading open-source projects fully integrated so that users don't have to be systems administrators.
|
|
|
|
**Maintenance and Backup of your Federated Core**
|
|
|
|
You don't need to worry about a thing. Your Federated Core is automatically backed up and maintained/updated without your having to do anything. We don't have access to your data, that is all end-to-end encrypted. But you do care for and manage your system so that you can go about doing your business.
|
|
|
|
Your backup is stored on B2 cloud storage at [Backblaze](https://www.backblaze.com/b2/cloud-storage.html). In a future version of Federated Core, we will allow you to backup to another provider or mount point.
|
|
|
|
**What if More Storage is Needed?**
|
|
|
|
Your Federated Core is monitored for storage requirements. If you need more storage, we will reach out to you with inexpensive options for increasing your storage capacity.
|
|
|
|
## What is included in this documentation?
|
|
|
|
We have tried to cover the high-level basics of what you will need to know to get the most out of your Federated Core. That includes:
|
|
|
|
* **Getting Started**: This is the place to go if you're short on time. We run you through the very bare minimum of what your need to know to use your Federated Core.
|
|
|
|
* **Core Applications**: Want to learn more and in-depth about each of the user-facing applications that are part of Federated Core? These pages detail application-by-application what is available and the capabilities of each.
|
|
|
|
* **Client Applications**: You can connect and your your Federated Core with applications native to your PC, Macintosh or mobile phone of whatever variety. This is a list of some of those applications and how to connect them.
|
|
|
|
