Nextcloud 12 is out and scales to a new level!
-
Good news: Nextcloud 12 is out! With it come all the improvements we discussed for the beta, most in the area of better collaboration and communication. Here's a video with a overview of some of the new features. Read our blog to learn more:
With it we announce something HUGE: a new architecture for scaling to hundreds of millions of users. It is called Global Scale and also brings benefits for smaller instances and even home users! You can learn all about it in our blog, the Global Scale webpage or the video below.
I'd like to thank everybody who was part of making this happen, from the most active code contributor to the most casual tester! Without you, we would never have been able to deliver such a great product. #powerofcommunity

Sweet. Can't wait to update.

My 11.03 system does not show the update available yet.

Great news.

See the announcement blog, in the Upgrading section:
Note that we do a staged roll-out: only 15% of the users on Nextcloud 11.0.3 on the Stable release channel currently receive an update notification for Nextcloud 12. If you wish to update with the updater even though there is no notification, you can set the channel to beta, reload the page and proceed to upgrade. After the upgrade set the channel back to stable!https://github.com/nextcloud/updater_server/pull/65 -> due to a calendar/contact issue (which is really bad behavior of the clients but what can you do...) we decided to only increase the % when 12.0.1 is out. That should be in about 1-2 weeks.

Any update to this? I just checked my control panel and it is not asking me to update yet.

I had to go to beta, mine never asked me to update either, even though the GA release download for stable was 12. I don't like new installs getting a newer version that "fully updated" existing installs.
-
@scottalanmiller his post was only 19 days ago and stated 1-2 weeks. So not far behind schedule if that is still the timeline.
-
Mine found the update on the first shot. 12 is looking really slick.

Looks like 12 may be a good time to get started?
With Nextcloud I assume you can provide a local network file share as well as sync to remote clients. Basically what dropbox, ODfB and Google drive doesnt? Maybe Citrix Sharefile has this feature site (but I have only read, never tried)

Not intended use case, but like ODfB you can map a share on a windows machine. I wouldn't ever do it though.
Either use the Sync Client, WebDAV, or HTTP.

Ah, so it couldn't double as a premise file server?
My only issue is 2 users overwriting each other...

Well it'll do on premises. And it'll be fast. But should you pretend it's an old fashioned SMB server? No. Don't try to make modern storage work in a legacy mode. You'll be sorry. Mixing paradigms.
