BurstCloud
Data storage is always a need. BurstCloud keeps data safe and aims to have
feature parity with the major existing drives.
I built StretchFS to power this service and that will really make BurstCloud
scale. Professionally its my dream to build a redundant, safe, and secure
data storage system that can be trusted.

My Professional Timeline
- 2006 Started as a professional PHP developer
- 2008 Started designing Cloud control systems
- 2011 Built a dedicated server billing system
- 2012 Attempted Cloud storage in PHP
- 2013 Switches to Node.js and abandoned most our PHP projects
- 2015 Released a few key projects in Node.js
- 2016 Learned that our Node.js projects needed a lot of improvement to match their PHP counterparts.
- 2017 Started imaginging and designing a framework to eliminate the endless dependencies and headaches they were causing.
- 2018 Broke ground on Kado 3 with the goal of bringing our existing production stack into a framework, call it a framework of frameworks.
- 2019 Settled on the shortfalls of Kado 3 and its supporting packages. Decided on a new design that was based on how C and C++ had done things. Broke ground on Kado 4.
- 2020 Released Kado 4 with a dependency free fully function framework allowing Node.js + Kado to make full applications.
- 2021 Released a full scale billing system and two client portals written against Kado 4.
- Recently we got to a point where all 4 projects are stable and running either fully or partially against Kado 4.
