rclone now supports Hubic
rclone is a cli utility that allows you to interact with multiple storage backends. I just saw that they released a new version that supports Hubic. I've done minimal testing, but it appears to work fine so far. I figured this would be of use to many of you here.

Whats performance like outside of OVH's network?
I copied a couple of files, 100MB and 500MB each, from a VPS I have in London. The average throughput was around 50Mbps, although it varied across runs.
Thats not bad
Love rclone great rsync like cloud syncing tool.
I finally got a tutorial for RClone up on Delimiter's wiki. I've been playing with RClone for the past few days. Kudos to @amhoab for the recommendation.

So you can try it properly, there's a free trial of ObjSpace 100GB plan for a month and see how you like it. Its $2.50/month thereafter if you keep it, you can scale up if you need more space.

@MarkTurner did the ObjStorage prices drop in the last few days? I am sure 100GB was $10 last time I looked.
100GB is a new entry point, previously the lowest entry point was 500GB for $9.80
Which vps to Hubic?
@markturner I like the domain for the ObjStorage
from Leaseweb SG to Hubic, I can max out my upload speed
test upload 954 M
OVH>Online.net is horrid. 40Gbit of connectivity on somedays 2 of the links are at 97% the other 2 are at 92%
Shame you only have a US location for object storage
If there is demand, then we could deploy in any of our EU sites, object storage is sufficiently profitable to operate in EU and Asia.
Can someone check how fast files are deleted? If I remember when I got my hubic acc people were saying files too a long as time to get removed.
Also using some hubic api at that time, any file uploaded had to be copied first to some special partition or dir of the api (which was quite a waste of I/O).
Does that still happen with the above method?
ps: obviously I never did manage to test for myself even though my hubic 10T acc is active and paid since their offer back then
any guide to set it up on debian? when following the linux guide i just get stuck at "waiting for code..".
the webpage reports: "Failed! No code found." (I access it over ssh tunnel)...
I just transferred 800MB from Delimiter to Hubic and got 5056.04 kByte/s.
question: rclone site says that you need to open a browser so it gets the hubic token.
What if you are running cli?
No problem at all, just tested it myself: Only thing you need to do is forwarding a port, then you can go through the usual authentication process of hubiC.
Thanks. As I said I haven't tried it myself so not quite sure what you did.
If you feel like it you could drop a few lines of noob-proof steps.
somehow the upload speed from online.net with rclone is only 7mbit. I usually got 150-200mbit with hubiCs own app and about 100mbit with hubicfuse. strange.
Sure! Just answered a question regarding this by a private message...
For example with Putty (ssh on linux should achieve the same):
It is as simple as creating a tunnel to "127.0.0.1:53682", then you can access the remote path on your local source port and go through the normal App-Login mechanism of hubiC.
Client ID and secret will then be stored in your local config file afterwards and be used to access your storage.
/EDIT/
But as far as I can judge that after this short time it seems as if I get slower uploads as for example with duply or their original client.
@mosan7763
online.net's links to OVH are overloaded most of the time. This could cause slow speed to OVH from online.net.
I just opened another shell with tmux and used lynx to open that URL. rclone was able to detect that, and updated the config automatically.
This was from a We Love Servers VM in London.
only problem i have with rclone is that the transfer speed is always ~800kbyte/s per file. it doesn't matter how many (1 or 20) it's always ~800kbyte/s.
Rclone to what?
hubiC
@mosan7763 - Thats more likely to be hubic/network than Rclone. Quite a few people complain about performance of hubic even with the hubic client.
I get almost wirespeed from my test server to Delimiter ObjSpace using Rclone so the software seems to be perfect.
a simple trick is to just queue more files.
Hubic is limited to 1MB/s, so 800kb/s is pretty close.
