In alcune note della presentazione di Google relativa allo scorso analyst day, Greg Linden ha trovato alcune informazioni interessanti.
Alcune di queste riguardano un probabile servizio di online storage, già battezzato GDrive.
Ecco l’estratto:
With infinite storage, we can house all user files, including: emails, web history, pictures, bookmarks, etc and make it accessible from anywhere (any device, any platform, etc).
We already have efforts in this direction in terms of GDrive, GDS, Lighthouse, but all of them face bandwidth and storage constraints today. (…) This theme will help us make the client less important (thin client, thick server model) which suits our strength vis-a-vis Microsoft and is also of great value to the user.
As we move toward the “Store 100%” reality, the online copy of your data will become your Golden Copy and your local-machine copy serves more like a cache.
