From Sign-Up to a Live Mayan EDMS Archive In Just 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting a document management system normally means a database, a message broker, a cache, a container and a certificate before a single file is filed. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick Mayan EDMS from the OneClick catalog. Enter a site title and domain — there are no other fields to fill in.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the pinned Mayan EDMS 4.12.1 image alongside private PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ and Redis services, run Mayan's own setup/upgrade routine to create the administrator account, mount all four persistent volumes and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Sign In And Change The Password

    Open your HTTPS URL and sign in as admin with the generated one-time password from your xCloud credential panel, then change that password immediately — it keeps appearing on Mayan's own sign-in page until you do. Create a document type, upload a public-safe PDF, add metadata and confirm it through search.

Everything Mayan EDMS Does, On Your Own Server

Mayan EDMS runs in full here — a self-hosted document management system, on infrastructure you control.

  • Controlled Document Storage

    Upload, version and organize documents on infrastructure you control, instead of a hosted document service.

  • Metadata, Types And Labels

    Classify files with document types, structured metadata and labels so a growing archive stays organized.

  • Full-Text Search

    Search indexed document records and retrieve the underlying uploaded file straight from the browser interface.

  • Document Workflows

    Attach reusable workflows to document types so files move through the review or approval steps you define.

  • Background Processing, Kept Private

    RabbitMQ and Redis handle queued work and task results behind the scenes, with no port exposed outside the server.

  • Four Volumes, Backed Up Together

    Uploaded documents, the relational database, queued work and application state each live on their own persistent volume.

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.

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.

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 Mayan EDMS?

Mayan EDMS is a free, open-source document management system for storing, versioning, classifying, searching and automating workflows for documents. This template deploys version 4.12.1.

Is Mayan EDMS free?

Yes — it is free and open source under the Apache License 2.0. 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 Mayan EDMS?

Yes — that is exactly what this template deploys. It brings up the pinned Mayan EDMS 4.12.1 image alongside private PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ and Redis services, all pinned by immutable digest, mounts four persistent volumes and publishes it over HTTPS on your domain in minutes instead of assembled by hand.

How do I sign in for the first time?

With a generated administrator account. The username is fixed as admin — there is no username field to choose at deploy time. xCloud generates a 32-character one-time password shown once in your credential panel. Mayan's own sign-in page also displays that same password in plaintext until you change it, so change it immediately after your first sign-in.

What does xCloud configure automatically?

The generated administrator password, a one-shot setup routine that runs Mayan's own migrations, the private PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ and Redis services, all four persistent volumes, the domain and the HTTPS route. Only the Mayan web interface is published through xCloud-managed ingress.

Is there an upload size limit?

Yes. xCloud's nginx caps proxied requests at 100 MB (client_max_body_size). Mayan itself imposes no smaller limit, so anything larger than 100 MB is rejected by nginx before Mayan receives it.

What should I back up?

All four volumes together, as one application-consistent set: mayan_app (uploaded documents and app-managed files), mayan_postgres (the authoritative relational data), mayan_rabbitmq (queued work) and mayan_redis (task results, locks and event state). Pause uploads and document processing before a coordinated backup.

Can I rotate the database, RabbitMQ or Redis credentials?

Yes, but they must stay synchronized. These credentials initialize their respective data stores on first boot; changing one side (the service itself or the matching Mayan connection value) without the other breaks the connection.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update Mayan EDMS?

No. The template pins Mayan EDMS 4.12.1, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ and Redis by immutable digest; a catalog re-sync affects new installations only. Review Mayan's release notes and take a coordinated backup before changing any pinned image. PostgreSQL major-version upgrades need a supported database migration, not an image-only change.

What are the server requirements?

The template manifest asks for 4 GB of RAM, two CPU cores and 20 GB of disk as a floor — running Mayan alongside PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ and Redis needs more headroom than a single-container app. This page sells the 16 GB tier per the min_ram_mb rule this site applies to every app.

What survives a restart?

Everything on mayan_app, mayan_postgres, mayan_rabbitmq and mayan_redis, because all four are persistent named volumes. A restart does not touch an uploaded document, its metadata, queued work or the database.

Is xCloud officially partnered with Mayan EDMS?

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

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.
