The ownCloud 4.5 release is the first major release of the platform since the ownCloud 4.0 release in May of this year.

Among the major enhancements to ownCloud 4.5 is support for mounting third party storage. That means that an ownCloud deployment can potentially manage its own storage as well as leverage other online storage sources such as Dropbox, Google Drive or Amazon S3.
