Cloudreve is a self-hosted file management and sharing platform that brings local and remote storage services together under a single web interface. It is particularly useful for people who maintain files across several cloud storage providers.
Rather than forcing everything onto one storage backend, Cloudreve allows administrators to define storage policies for different services. Users work with a consistent interface regardless of where their files are physically stored. The software can serve individuals, families and organisations that need centralised access to distributed storage.
This is free and open source software.
