Offshore Hosting for a Nextcloud Instance
Nextcloud is the leading open source private cloud platform - files, calendars, contacts, collaborative documents, photos. Self-hosting on an offshore VPS gives you Dropbox + Google Workspace functionality without any third-party reading your data. This page covers Nextcloud on an Anubiz VPS.

We implement, you ship. Async, documented, done in days.
Nextcloud sizing reality
Single user, modest files: 2 vCPU 4 GB RAM 80 GB NVMe. Family or small team (5-15 users), several hundred GB: 4 vCPU 8 GB RAM 320 GB storage. Larger deployments add Redis, separate database, and possibly object storage backend. The All-In-One Docker bundle simplifies install dramatically.
Stack
Nginx or Apache, PHP-FPM, MariaDB or Postgres, Redis for caching, Nextcloud application. With AIO, this is one Docker container that manages the rest. Talk (video) adds an STUN/TURN component. Office (collaborative editing) adds Collabora or OnlyOffice.
Anubiz binding
Anubiz offshore VPS plans from $17.90/mo. For substantial file storage, choose plans with larger NVMe or attach block storage. Crypto payment, no KYC. Internal links: /en/hosting-for-owncloud-offshore, /en/hosting-for-seafile-offshore, /en/anonymous-vps.
Backup strategy
Nextcloud data is irreplaceable for many users. Restic or Borg to a second offshore VPS, weekly full + daily incremental, encrypted with a passphrase you control. Test restores quarterly. The most common Nextcloud disaster is not data loss; it is an upgrade that fails and an out-of-date backup.
