Self-Hosted Services

4. Server & Container Management

Linux · Docker · Proxmox · Self-Hosted · NAS

Our self-hosted services give you full control over your digital infrastructure, without relying on third-party platforms or external cloud providers: no sudden service cuts, no dependency on external policies, and no hidden subscription traps. You benefit from lower long-term costs, enhanced privacy, and greater reliability.

Before starting any self-hosted service, we offer a customization and planning session, providing two tailored solutions with clear reasoning, expected costs, and possible optimizations. All plans are covered by our performance guarantee (see Guarantee); services involving direct handling of client data (importing records, integrating databases, uploading files) are scheduled after an initial 30-day evaluation period, to protect your sensitive information while you confirm the platform fits your needs.
