Railroad Repository is a repository software solution that offers a standardized method for storing and managing large binary files.
Railroad is innovative and dedicated to managing large files and their metadata, and can be integrated seamlessly into CMS and other client software. This is done using the open WebDAV protocol and simple HTTP messaging, allowing uploads and downloads of files to be managed fully by Railroad while the authorization to upload or download is left to the CMS that uses whatever authorization scheme is needed.
For larger organizations or teams, Railroad also allows multiple clients such as CMS and DAM systems to access resources in the repository simultaneously. This ensures that large data files and their metadata are centrally managed and shared among various groups. Additionally, Railroad makes file data management on the filesystem much easier for the system administrator. Railroad categorizes different file types into separate directories, making it simpler for the system administrator to determine which file types are taking up the most space and move them to a larger partition.
Finally, it is also possible to run multiple repositories in one Apache instance, or on different machines using the same database, making it a versatile option for businesses of all sizes. Railroad Repository is a must-have software tool for managing large binary files seamlessly within a CMS or other client software.
