Today, US based file sync & share vendor Kiteworks announced their acquisition of ownCloud and Dracoon. Nextcloud offers a free hands on migration service and takes over the remaining runtime of the contracts. Migration is a very quick and easy process, as shown by the many hundreds that have done this already over the last years.

    Perhaps not a great surprise? Both ownCloud and Nextcloud have catered more and more to enterprise clients so it might be expected that an enterprise cloud provider would be interested in acquiring one or other. Apparently ownCloud software will remain licensed under an Apache license but it still sounds ominous.
