Bebra LabsIntroducing Bebra Sync 3.0
When we started Bebra Labs in 2021, file sync was a solved problem — or so we thought. Then our customers started putting 4 GB container images and 200 GB datasets into their workspaces, and the old whole-file approach fell apart.
Sync 3.0 replaces whole-file transfers with content-defined chunking. Files are split at content boundaries, so inserting a paragraph in the middle of a document re-uploads one chunk, not the file. In our benchmarks, a typical edit to a 1 GB file now transfers under 2 MB.
LAN peer sync
Devices on the same network now discover each other and exchange blocks directly, encrypted device-to-device. In a 40-person office we measured a 90% reduction in WAN traffic during morning sync storms.
Conflict resolution you can trust
Automatic merge is great until it isn't. Sync 3.0 keeps both versions of every conflicted file and shows a side-by-side diff. Nothing is ever silently discarded.
Sync 3.0 rolls out to all workspaces this week. No action needed — the client updates itself.
