I notice that Dropbox has come out with some improvements to their “Dropins” and they also have new APIs for Sync, Datastore and Core, as shown at: https://www.dropbox.com/developers
They have a new Partner reseller program: https://dropboxpartners.com/
The Dropbox Datastore API looks like it supports saving and retrieving JSON data files. Has anyone tried integrating a Servoy solution with Dropbox using the new Dropins and/or APIs?

Whoa, that’s too cool. Automatic syncing and conflict resolution at the (“by the” more accurately?) data storage layer is big-time crazy stuff. The one we’ve been checking out is: https://www.firebase.com/. A whole new paradigm of what data storage engines do for you.
Thanks for the additional hours of research in my near future

Cloudant (like Dropbox) was founded by some of M.I.T. guys here in Massachusetts.
Per their site:
“Cloudant was founded in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 2008 by three MIT physicists who at the time were moving multi-petabyte data sets around from the Large Hadron Collider. Frustrated by the available tools for managing and analyzing Big Data in their research, the founders built a distributed, fault-tolerant, globally scalable data layer on top of Apache CouchDB.”
