With today's Nextcloud Hub release we also released the new ADA engine. Tons of work went into this significant rewrite of the Nextcloud filesystem abstraction to make Nextcloud scale even better. https://nextcloud.com/blog/a-new-data-access-architecture-for-nextcloud-introducing-the-ada-engine/

Ein Plan B macht uns digital souverän?
Wenn es nach dem BMDS geht, schon.

Wechselfähigkeit ist wichtig. Aber sie reicht nicht. Warum das so ist, habe ich für den Tagesspiegel Background aufgeschrieben.

I'm very proud of the Nextcloud Engineers who implemented the new ADA data access architecture. We are already running it internally and you can really feel the difference. The bigger the instance is the bigger the speed improvements. The launch is just a few days away: https://nextcloud.com/special-event-winter26/ https://nextcloud.com/blog/a-new-data-access-architecture-for-nextcloud-introducing-the-ada-engine/

Ist das wirklich wahr? Statt die Digitale Souveränität zu verbessern ändert das Digitalministerium einfach die Definition so dass man heute schon am Ziel ist ohne sich bewegen zu müssen.
Was ist mit Cloud Act? Was ist mit Vendor Lock-In? Spionage? Was ist mit der Stärkung der Europäischen IT Industrie? Was ist mit Open Source? Was ist mit ständigen Preiserhöhungen bei Microsoft? Warum nicht heute auf Lösungen migrieren die heute schon in anderen Ländern erfolgreich im Einsatz sind?
