installation for new users. Recognizing that most users don't have
their own servers, we've been working on making it easier to run
Camlistore on cloud providers. Initially we've targeted the <a

sure Camlistore is well-adapted to that environment. We now provide a

Cloud Platform, we now provide a web-based launcher for users to

Making Camlistore run well on cloud providers required two other major
features: the <code>blobpacked</code> storage backend (for latency and
cost reasons) and <a href="https://http2.github.io/">HTTP/2</a> (for
latency reasons).

<p>For users wishing to use Scaleway, see our early <a

image</a>. Our Scaleway image does not yet use Scaleway's Object Storage service, however,
and puts all Camlistore data on the same volume as the Camlistore code itself, potentially complicating
upgrades. It should be considered an early preview.</p>

The <code>blobpacked</code> storage backend allows faster reading & serving of
files because it stores related blobs contiguously within larger container blobs (which
are also valid zip files) instead of many small randomly dispersed blobs. See the <a
