How To Install Owncloud 9 Server On Ubuntu

I posted about Own-cloud 8.0 setup exactly 13 months ( 1 year one one month ) ago, Now Own-cloud development team announced the release of owncloud 9 yesterday , so let me again show you how to setup owncloud 9 community edition in your ubuntu server .

Whats New

1. Collaboration

Groups have now access to collaboration tools , such as global activity streams and version rollback, the ability to post comments and add tags . Users with file access may post comments on a file, with others being notified when this is done. more about collaboration tools

2. Federation

he concept behind Federation is to allow users to have shared files and folders even when using different servers.

3. Scalability

The ownCloud 9 release features a new storage API that allows for deeper integration with storage solutions and an updated sharing code, designed to handle more shares with more users.
