We build our very own cloud storage platform to replace other, obsolete and proprietary solutions. This episode of the Hacker Next Door show is the first in a two-part mini series.

In this mini series our goal is two-fold: We want to take back control of our own data and at the same time enjoy the plethora of benefits the cloud provides. The cloud storage system we have come up with and use for the last couple of months, comprises:

* BitTorrent Sync, for fast and secure file synchronization between computers, laptops, devices and cloud servers

* ownCloud, for easy and secure access to our files, from wherever we happen to be and even from devices which are not our own

* The Amazon S3 compatible StorageQloud system of GreenQloud. With StorageQloud we can have as much storage space in the cloud as we want, and at the same time pay only for the space we really use

* A cloud provider with data centers in a country with strong pro-privacy laws
