Vertical development of a personal cloud solution The “cloud”, as it is intended today, is raising more and more concerns related to user data privacy and security. As a consequence, the interest for in-premises and private clouds, independent from any external entity, is very current and already sees some existing solutions relying on open-source services. In this context, the candidate is asked to assess the state-of-the-art to identify possible existing solutions/components to create a new concept of private cloud, full-fledged vertically integrated, easy to use out-of-the-box. Furthermore, the creation of an ad-hoc Linux distribution or the development of new technologies to allow portability of the private cloud across different platforms and architectures is also in scope with the proposed internship.
