JupyterLab Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Work with notebooks, terminals, text files and data from one browser interface, on a workspace that stays on infrastructure you control. xCloud configures the official Jupyter Docker Stacks minimal-notebook image, a persistent jupyterlab_work volume and the HTTPS reverse proxy in minutes, with a generated access token waiting when you sign in.

  • No technical skills needed
  • No lock-in, cancel anytime

From Sign-Up to a Live JupyterLab Workspace In Just 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting a notebook environment normally means a container, a persistent workspace, a domain and a certificate before a single cell runs. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick JupyterLab from the OneClick catalog. Enter a site title and domain, then leave the access-token field empty for secure automatic generation or supply your own.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the official Jupyter Docker Stacks minimal-notebook image pinned by immutable digest, mount the jupyterlab_work volume at /home/jovyan/work, and publish JupyterLab over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Sign In And Create A Notebook

    Open your HTTPS URL and sign in with the access token shown in your installation credentials. Create a notebook or upload project files under the persistent work directory.

Everything JupyterLab Does, On Your Own Server

JupyterLab runs in full here — notebooks, terminals and interactive data exploration, on infrastructure you control.

  • Notebooks In The Browser

    Write and run notebooks, open terminals and edit text files from one interface, without installing anything locally.

  • Token-Protected Access

    Sign in with a generated access token instead of a shared or default password.

  • Persistent Workspace

    Notebooks and files under /home/jovyan/work survive a restart, so a session picks up exactly where you left it.

  • Official Jupyter Docker Stacks Image

    Runs the same minimal-notebook image the Jupyter project itself publishes and maintains.

  • Bring Your Own Packages

    Install the kernels and packages your analysis needs inside the running environment, on hardware you size yourself.

  • One Volume, Fully Persistent

    The jupyterlab_work volume is the entire persistence contract — everything under it survives a restart.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.
Kevin Pineda
I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently
Kevin Heinrichs
I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.
Rahil Maknojia
Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

What is JupyterLab?

JupyterLab is a free, open-source browser-based notebook and interactive development environment for notebooks, terminals, text files and data exploration. This template deploys it via the official Jupyter Docker Stacks minimal-notebook image, tagged 2026-08-24.

Is JupyterLab free?

Yes — JupyterLab and Jupyter Docker Stacks are free and open source under the BSD-3-Clause license. What you pay xCloud for is the dedicated server it runs on and the management around it, not the application itself.

Can I self-host JupyterLab?

Yes — that is exactly what this template deploys. It brings up the official Jupyter Docker Stacks minimal-notebook image pinned by immutable digest, mounts its persistent work volume and publishes it over HTTPS on your domain in minutes instead of assembled by hand.

How do I sign in?

With a single access token. Leave the field empty at install time for xCloud to generate a 32-character token, or supply your own of at least 24 characters. There is no separate username or account system — token authentication is the whole access-control model here.

What does xCloud configure automatically?

The generated access token, the persistent jupyterlab_work volume, the domain and the HTTPS route. Only JupyterLab is published through xCloud-managed ingress, on a loopback-bound application port.

Is this JupyterHub with multiple user accounts?

No. This template runs a single-token minimal-notebook instance, not JupyterHub. There is no multi-user account management — one access token controls access to the whole workspace.

What should I back up?

The jupyterlab_work volume, which holds /home/jovyan/work — your notebooks and workspace files. Back it up before upgrades, migrations or destructive maintenance.

What survives a container recreation?

Only what's under /home/jovyan/work, because that is the only path on the persistent jupyterlab_work volume. Packages installed elsewhere in the container, custom kernels, or system-level changes are not part of the persistence contract and will not survive a recreation — keep environment definition files in work to make your setup reproducible.

How do I rotate the access token?

Update JUPYTER_TOKEN in xCloud's Environment editor and restart the application, then verify a fresh sign-in. Existing browser sessions may need to sign in again.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update JupyterLab?

No. The template pins the quay.io/jupyter/minimal-notebook 2026-08-24 image by immutable digest; a catalog re-sync affects new installations only. Back up the work volume and verify notebook loading, kernel startup and package compatibility before changing the pinned image.

What are the server requirements?

The template manifest asks for 2 GB of RAM, two CPU cores and 8 GB of disk as a floor. This page sells the 6 GB tier per the same rule every OneClick app uses — add storage and memory for larger datasets and heavier kernels.

Is xCloud officially partnered with Jupyter?

No. No official partnership or endorsement between xCloud and the Jupyter project has been verified. This is a deployment and server-management option for the open-source Jupyter Docker Stacks image.

Can I run other apps on the same server?

Yes. It is a dedicated Cloud VPS, not a locked appliance, so you can deploy other OneClick apps or your own sites beside it as long as the resources are there.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.

Ready for a Private Notebook Workspace?

Connect your first server in minutes. No credit card required, and no plan you have to grow into.
