We now provide nextCloud, a Dropbox-like cloud storage service, for all Compute Canada users. You can use your Compute Canada username and password to login to the [https://nextcloud.computecanada.ca/ nextCloud server]. A complete nextCloud user [https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/19/Nextcloud_User_Manual.pdf manual] is available from [https://docs.nextcloud.com/ docs.nextcloud.com]. Another manual is available as PDF document under your account once you connect. All data transfers between local devices and Compute Canada's nextCloud are encrypted. | We now provide nextCloud, a Dropbox-like cloud storage service, for all Compute Canada users.
