DSM 5.1 brings enhancements to help users complete their cloud solutions by providing an private cloud that works inline with the public cloud- allowing local storage, control, and peace of mind with convenience.

  • Deeper cloud integration: In addition to services like Google Drive and Dropbox, cloud Sync now adds support for OneDrive and Box. Backup is supported to Microsoft Azure. The Explore feature allows for browsing for and retrieving single files from Amazon’s Glacier service.

  • Sync control: Administrators can create syncing profiles. Synced files can retain ACL permissions.

  • Note Station and DS note: Create, share, and sync digital notes and notebooks with a browser or mobile device. It’s even possible to import notes from Evernote.

  • Improved security: Security Advisor provides reports and advice to improve security, and can even remove known malware. AppArmor protects system resources from malicious software. Package Center supports digital signatures to prevent installing tampered software usage.

“We’re excited to be making the cloud complete,” said Jason Bonoan, product marketing manager, Synology America Corp. “By providing a more solid private cloud solution from Synology that works with popular cloud providers it allows our users to have full local control of their files- from security and productivity enhancement to improved multimedia experiences.“
