There are a lot of options for storing data and easy work with them. All you need for this is your server and a cloud solution installed on the server. You can configure everything yourself or rent a server that is already ready for hosting and storing data. In any case, it is better for you to be able to work with cloud services and understand their principle of operation. For a more pleasant work, you can choose which solution you should use yourself. From the ones I tested, I can advise you NextCloud, it is built on the basis of ownCloud. It is a free cloud solution that is very convenient to use. You can easily give access to employees, add files, and so on.If suddenly you need to create your own cloud storage on the server, then you can choose a owncloud file with because it is free (The version is very limited, but you can use it).

We have a video instruction that b2b email list will clearly explain to you what actions you need to do to install owncloud on the server.


However, if you need a printed version of the instructions, then it will be slightly lower.


We will install it on a server built on Ubuntu 20.04 and the latest version of ownCloud at the moment is 10.9.1

The first thing to do is to check if your server needs updates by entering the commands one by one

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
After checking the system and updating (if necessary), you can restart it if the system requires it, or proceed to the next step.
