I'm working with 2 datacenters > 500 miles apart, so I can't do
synchronous replication.
We are currently using rsync and cron now, but are looking for
something that might be an improvement.
After exploring gluster with geo-replication, it looks like that uses
rsync under the covers, unless you specify tar-over-ssh.</pre>

You may be able to get better synchronicity by combining RSYNC with
INOTIFY instead of driving RSYNC only from CRON. <br>

At work, since my employer is just as Windoze-centric as any other,
we use MS OneDrive. (I am not unhappy with it. Some Microsoft
products are quite good.) OneDrive watches for changes to files in
the synchronized folder. Similarly, INOTIFY watches for changes to
files in a watched folder. (The <a
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inotify">Wikipedia page</a>
says that INOTIFY does not follow hierarchies.) <br>
