Versie 28 van Nextcloud, oftewel Nextcloud Hub 7, is verschenen. Met Nextcloud is het mogelijk om in eigen beheer cloudopslag te draaien. Het is ontstaan als een fork van ownCloud nadat een groot aantal ontwikkelaars wegens een conflict daar is vertrokken. Alle onderdelen, inclusief de enterprisefunctionaliteit, worden als open source aangeboden en het verdienmodel is gelijk aan wat Red Hat doet, namelijk het leveren van betaalde ondersteuning aan grote klanten. In versie 28 is onder meer de zoekfunctie verbeterd. De complete releasenotes zijn hier te vinden. Dit is een stuk daaruit:
Connected, efficient and productiveToday, we’re introducing our most integrated platform yet – Nextcloud Hub 7. Imagine your work space interconnected, with your files seamlessly accessible in Talk, your calendars integrated in Mail and your tasks visible in your Calendar. Nextcloud is designed as a unified platform, bridging all the functionality you need to get your tasks done. With Hub 7 we improved our Unified Search which finds chat messages, emails, calendar items, documents and even external content like support tickets or memes. You can bring up search wherever you are in Nextcloud.
Another major improvement was done around your out-of-office status. This can now be configured in your availability settings. It is applied not only in an out-of-office email, but also in Calendar (with an automatic out-of-office Calendar item) and in Talk, where others get notified that you’re not around. Are you the backup for your colleague that is on vacation? Covering for them has never been so easy. Find all items you two share in their profile via Contacts: files, tasks, events, emails, and more. From new integration features to AI enhancements and a completely rewritten Files app, Hub 7 delivers the solutions you need to foster efficiency, collaboration and productivity. Read on to discover how you can transform your work through Nextcloud Hub 7.
