Peppermint OS = CLOUD computing ?

Dear all Linux folks,

My Linux knowledge is limited, asking for help/suggestion here.
What I wanna know more was about CLOUD in Ubuntu.

I just know few fact that Peppermint OS is a L/Ubuntu-based Linux distribution. It is also a LIVE OS!

One of the members said that:

As for Linux distros with a cloud computing focus, there is Peppermint OS,

I now running LIVE Peppermint OS, so howto start the cloud program/services to have a look?

Again, what I wanna know more was about CLOUD in Ubuntu.

I think what you are maybe asking about is the Ubuntu One service? this is an Ubuntu "cloud" service much like DropBox or ownCloud or whatever, run by Ubuntu. You can sign up for it here at http://one.ubuntu.com

Using Ubuntu One, strictly speaking, I guess was designed for Ubuntu. PeppermintOS is BASED on Ubuntu but it is not Ubuntu. They have separate websites, separate names, and are run by separate people. However, Ubuntu One can be used on lots of different platforms, so you can sign up for Ubuntu One and then access your Ubuntu One account through Peppermint OS.

Before I go on...is this what you are asking about? Ubuntu One? or are you trying to achieve something else?

Thank you for the suggestion. "or are you trying to achieve something else?" Yes, what I trying to do is cloud server

Ubuntu One was the client side application.
What I looking is = howto build a cloud server in (X)Ubuntu
to provide clould service to users.


And one of the members here said that:

As for Linux distros with a cloud computing focus, there is Peppermint OS,

so I thought such LIVE OS had something built-in tools inside.

See the section Learn how to build a cloud at this page from the Ubuntu wiki:
http://www.ubuntu.com/cloud

So could you please tell me more about the PEPPERMINT OS?
Is PEPPERMINT focusing on CLOUD?

Does PEPPERMINT have some built-in CLOUD tools inside?

Yes, it apparently does.
I do not know much about Peppermint OS as I have never used it.
Here is a review from distrowatch from July 2013:

Other reviews can be found in the links at the distrowatch page for Peppermint OS:

Having read that review:
Peppermint is a cloud client allowing integration of web-based applications with the desktop. It is not a cloud server distribution. If you want your own cloud server then you should look at something like Owncloud (I haven't tried it yet so no idea how good it it):
http://owncloud.org/install/

Thank you all of your reply! Thank you once again =)

should look at something like Owncloud

OwnCloud ? ok, thank you and now I directed to the following:
I research about OwnCloud which available in SUSE as well as UBUNTU according to the manual.
