Backups and photos under your own roof (without the subscription trap)
Ideal for personal and business data storage: photos, videos, personal files, and device backups. Digital sovereignty – your data stays with you.
- Data under your control – no more "we changed the terms" surprises.
- Automatic backups without thinking (phone, PC, server).
- Sharing with your team or family – via link / with permissions / password-protected.
- No per-user subscriptions – you pay for performance and storage, not per user.
Why people want this solution
Keep your photos and videos in one place, accessible from your phone and computer – without anyone "optimizing" or limiting them.
Stop paying per user and for every higher tier. You pay for server/storage – and run things on your own terms.
Set permissions, expiration, passwords – and keep everything organized with full history.
Back up your phone, laptop, and important folders automatically. When something breaks, you know where to look.
Why your own VPS beats paid cloud services
- No vendor lock-in – your data and infrastructure belong to you, not "rented under someone else's terms".
- No "per user" limits – even those who only occasionally download photos or upload a few files don't cost you extra from third parties.
- Privacy & sovereignty – you don't hand over sensitive data to third parties.
- More customization – applications, encryption, local folders, retention policies, automation.
- Scale as needed – add disk/capacity when you know you need it. Not when someone "allows" you to.

Immich (Google Photos alternative)
End of unlimited Google Photos? Immich is a worthy alternative. Automatic upload from your phone, albums, search, and organization – without your photos ending up outside your server.
Great when you want:
- automatic photo and video backup from your phone (and peace of mind),
- smarter organization (face detection, locations, albums),
- shared albums for family/team without third-party rules and limits.
MinIO (S3 compatible)
MinIO is "S3 at your place" – object storage compatible with the Amazon S3 API. In practice, this means: tons of tools and applications can connect to it directly, while your data doesn't fly off to a third-party provider.
Typically used for:
- application backups (no matter where they run),
- storing media files (websites, video, assets, uploads),
- backend for your own services – without vendor lock-in.
Storage VPS (high capacity for data)
When you need terabytes of space and don't want to pay a "cloud surcharge". Storage VPS are servers optimized for storage – large HDD or SSD drives at a reasonable price. Ideal for archives, backups, and personal/business cloud where capacity is king.
Most common scenarios:
- archiving (projects, videos, historical data),
- central backup server (everything in one place),
- personal cloud with large data volumes (photos, videos, family "vault").
Let us design a cloud that won't frustrate you
Tell us 3 things: how much data (GB/TB), how many devices/users, and whether you mainly need photos, sharing, or backups. We'll recommend what makes sense (and what's unnecessary overkill).
