Rook, accessible on GitHub, is also an open source software released under the Apache 2.0 license.
He came from Symform a company he co-founded in 2007 with Praerit Garg then acquired in 2014 by Quantum. This later has shut down the service in 2016. Symform was a decentralized P2P storage product playing against AetherStore, Aerofs, Blockade, Cloudplan, Kerstor, Ubistorage, Ugloo, Sia.tech, Space Monkey, Storj, Symform, Transporter, Tudzu or Wuala. Like many players Symform moved from generic use cases to a backup one.
