​Our distributed storage middleware is built in the user space (as an app, no changes to the OS) of mobile, portable and embedded devices. When activated, it transforms a device into a storage node of an ad-hoc storage service (made by the other devices running the same middleware). The current version of the middleware exploits the HEAVEN communication middleware to coordinate the operations of the multiple devices running the distributed database service.

Our roots
Dr. Abdo Shabah was with the Canadian Red Cross in response to the devastating 2010 Haiti earthquake. As an emergency physician, he experienced with the lack of technical support on the field and realized the impact of this scarcity on lifesaving outcomes. Upon his return, he thus decided to start a project along with a group of passionate people. Their ultimate goal is to develop relevant technologies for frontline workers. This is how Humanitas Solutions started in 2013.
​
Today, Humanitas Solutions is a creative team of designers, developers, and researchers. People exchange their expertise, compassion, and initiatives leading to a shared, determined destination.
Our values
Compassion - Collaboration - Passion - Innovation
