OxiCloud Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

OxiCloud hosting on xCloud lets you deploy OxiCloud and run a lightweight private cloud for files, calendars and contacts with browser uploads and WebDAV, CalDAV and CardDAV access. xCloud runs the pinned OxiCloud 0.8.9 image beside a private PostgreSQL 18.2 database, generates the database credentials and JWT signing secret, mounts two persistent volumes and publishes the app over HTTPS in minutes.

What is OxiCloud?

OxiCloud is a self-hosted cloud for files, calendars and contacts, written in Rust. Upstream aims it at self-hosters, home labs and small teams who want the useful parts of a cloud suite without the operational drag of a traditional PHP stack. It has WebDAV, CalDAV and CardDAV built in, plus file previews, sharing, trash, search and favorites, and is MIT licensed. A self-hosted OxiCloud is an alternative to hosted storage such as Google Drive. Upstream is pre-1.0.

On xCloud the template deploys OxiCloud 0.8.9 and PostgreSQL 18.2, both pinned by digest, with only the app published over HTTPS and the database private. Uploaded content sits on oxicloud_storage_data and users, shares, calendars and contacts on oxicloud_db_data. Self-registration is open until you restrict or disable it. SMTP, SSO and office editing are not configured.

From Sign-Up to a Live Private Cloud In Just 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting a file, calendar, and contacts platform normally means a container, a database, generated secrets, a domain and a certificate before you can upload a single file. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick OxiCloud from the OneClick catalog. Enter a site title, choose a domain, and optionally restrict self-registration to a comma-separated list of email domains.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We bring up the official OxiCloud 0.8.9 image alongside a private PostgreSQL 18.2 database — both pinned by immutable digest — generate the database credentials and a stable JWT signing secret, mount persistent storage, and publish the application over HTTPS on your domain.
Step 03
Create the First Account and Upload a File
Open the generated HTTPS URL and create the first local administrator account, then create a folder or upload a test file and confirm it can be read back. Restrict or disable further registration afterward unless public signup is intentional.

Everything OxiCloud Does, On Your Own Server

OxiCloud runs in full here — files, calendars, contacts, and standards-based client access, on infrastructure you control.

Browser File Management
Upload, organize, and retrieve files straight from OxiCloud's browser interface — no client software required.
WebDAV, CalDAV and CardDAV
Connect compatible desktop, mobile, and calendar clients over standards-based WebDAV, CalDAV, and CardDAV.
Calendars and Contacts
Keep calendars and contacts alongside your files in one self-hosted platform instead of a separate service.
Controlled Self-Registration
Allow any email domain to self-register during bootstrap, or restrict it up front to a comma-separated allowlist.
Persistent Storage And Database
Uploaded content, application-managed auth material, and PostgreSQL data persist on their own volumes across restarts.
Private Database, Public App Only
PostgreSQL stays on the internal network — only the OxiCloud application is published over HTTPS.

What You Can Do With OxiCloud

Run a private file cloud for a small team
A team uploads, organises and shares files from the browser, with the files and the PostgreSQL database on a server it controls.
Sync calendars and contacts to your devices
Point a CalDAV or CardDAV client at your HTTPS URL so a phone and a laptop share the same events and address book.
Mount files as a network drive
Connect a WebDAV-capable desktop client to your OxiCloud URL and work with the files without a custom sync tool.
Limit who can sign up
Enter an email-domain allowlist at install, or switch registration off after the first account, so only your own people can register.

OxiCloud vs Alternatives

Google Drive: A hosted storage service from its vendor. An OxiCloud alternative to Google Drive keeps files, calendars and contacts on a server you run, with the database private to the install.
Nextcloud: Nextcloud has its own OneClick page. In an OxiCloud vs Nextcloud comparison, upstream positions OxiCloud as a Rust app for people who want a lighter stack than a traditional PHP one.
ownCloud: ownCloud has its own OneClick page. OxiCloud is a younger, pre-1.0 project, so keep exact release pins and test upgrades before depending on it.
Seafile: Seafile has its own OneClick page. OxiCloud adds calendars and contacts over CalDAV and CardDAV next to its file storage.

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!

Brian Geovanny

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

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud

Ed Ellingham

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.

xCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Is OxiCloud free?

Yes. OxiCloud is open source under the MIT licence, so there is no licence fee. You pay xCloud for the dedicated Cloud VPS that runs the app and PostgreSQL, plus the disk your uploaded files consume.

How much RAM does OxiCloud need?

The manifest sets a floor of 2 CPU cores, 2 GB of RAM and 10 GB of disk. Uploads, thumbnails, media processing, concurrent transfers and PostgreSQL growth all add to that, so the 6 GB plan gives sensible headroom.

Can you self-host OxiCloud with Docker?

Yes, and this template is OxiCloud Docker hosting without the wiring: the ghcr.io/atalayalabs/oxicloud 0.8.9 image and PostgreSQL 18.2, both pinned by digest, generated credentials and JWT secret, two named volumes and HTTPS on your domain.

Does OxiCloud support WebDAV, CalDAV and CardDAV?

Yes. Upstream builds all three in, so compatible desktop, mobile and calendar clients can use your HTTPS URL for files, events and contacts. Sign in with an OxiCloud account; the template adds no separate gateway in front.

Who can create an account on my OxiCloud server?

By default anyone who reaches the site can self-register. Enter an email-domain allowlist at install, or set OXICLOUD_DISABLE_REGISTRATION=true in the Environment editor after the first account and restart. Do it soon unless public signup is intended.

What is the difference between OxiCloud and Nextcloud?

Nextcloud has its own OneClick page here. Upstream describes OxiCloud as a Rust cloud for files, calendars and contacts without a traditional PHP stack, and it is pre-1.0, so check that every feature you need exists before moving.

Nextcloud hosting

What happens if I change the JWT secret?

Every active session is invalidated at once and everyone must sign in again. The generated secret is meant to stay unchanged for the life of the installation, so only rotate it when you intend to sign all users out.

How do I back up OxiCloud?

Back up oxicloud_storage_data and oxicloud_db_data together at one recovery point. The first holds uploaded content and auth material, the second users, shares, calendars and contacts. A copy of only one volume is not a recoverable backup.

Backups in xCloud

How do I upgrade OxiCloud?

The install stays on OxiCloud 0.8.9 until you adopt a newer template version. Read the upstream release notes and migrations, stop writes, back up both volumes together and test the restore first. Never mix a newer database with older file storage.

Is there an OxiCloud cloud service I can use?

This page is your own OxiCloud cloud: a dedicated Cloud VPS running the open-source app and a private PostgreSQL, with files, calendars and contacts on volumes you control. Your files never mix with another tenant's.

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.
