Ambar

Ambar is a secure storage and sharing platform that lets organisations keep their files on their own servers instead of Google Drive or Dropbox. Sharing with internal teams and external parties is permissioned, versioned and backed up.

Scope

  • Web interface and admin panel
  • Desktop apps (Windows, macOS, Linux) and Android / iOS mobile apps
  • Sharing with internal teams and external parties; group quotas and time-limited transfer pools
  • Version control, comments and notes, automatic backup
  • Cross-device synchronisation
  • FTP, Windows Network, SharePoint and NFS integrations
  • Secure file transfer through Siper

Deployment

Ambar runs both on the organisation's own servers (on-prem) and in the cloud. Because the data can stay on the institution's own infrastructure, files never leave for overseas cloud services.

My role
