With the successive shutdown of many domestic online disks, the serious speed limit of Baidu cloud disks, replacing small movies with 8-second educational films, and so on, domestic online disks are either castrated or disabled, which is really chilling, when we cannot find cloud services that can be used at ease, what should we do with our data?

Relatively simple and reliable solutions include the purchase of Office 365 with Microsoft OneDrive, as well as foreign Dropbox, Google Drive, etc., or the purchase of NAS equipment. Of course, if you have hands-on ability, you can also use your own / company computer or rent a VPS server to "build your own private cloud disk"! In addition to SeaFile, ownCloud, Daemon Sync, the new generation of open source network disk Nextcloud is also recommended.

Nextcloud-create your own private cloud disk

Nextcloud is a free and professional private cloud storage network disk "open source" project, which allows you to easily and quickly set up a set of cloud synchronization network disk of your own or your team on personal / corporate computers, servers, and even raspberry pies, so as to achieve cross-platform and cross-device file synchronization, sharing, version control, team cooperation and other functions.

Nextcloud supports Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, Linux and other platforms, and also provides "web version" and WebDAV access, so you can easily access and access your documents on almost any computer or mobile device.

In addition, Nextcloud also supports API and plug-in extensions, and users can enhance the functionality of the network disk by installing various "plug-ins", such as Markdown editors, notes, calendars, task lists, music players, document editing, and so on.

Because it is a self-built network disk, there are almost no restrictions on how to use it as long as your device has sufficient performance and space. The only threshold is a little bit of hassle when installing and configuring the Nextcloud server.

The Nextcloud server uses the classic combination of PHP+MySQL, and if you have experience in building a site, you can easily set up and run it on a VPS server or PC, because Nextcloud is as simple as building a WordPress blog. It is officially recommended to build a server under a Linux (such as Ubuntu or CentOS) system, which is relatively more stable than Windows.

For beginners, the specific difficulty should be "how to build the running environment of PHP and MySQL". There are too many related tutorials on the Internet, so make good use of search, so I won't go into details here. If you plan to use Windows as the server side, you can use WAMP, XAMPP and other tools to build a PHP+MySQL environment with one click.

The difference between Nextcloud and ownCloud

Careful netizens may find that ownCloud and Nextcloud are similar in function, appearance and even the official website, so what is the relationship and what is the difference between them?

In fact, ownCloud has been acquired by a German company, because its overall pursuit of "commercialization" may not be consistent with the concept of the founding development team, of course, there are a variety of other factors (opinions vary), and eventually the founding team members left to start a new business, opening up a new branch based on ownCloud and re-creating a new network disk-- it is today's Nextcloud.

As a newborn, Nextcloud can be seen as the next generation of ownCloud, it fixes more bug, supports more platforms, and adds a lot of new features that ownCloud does not have, and still remains open source free, so, considering the subsequent maintenance upgrades, you should know how to choose.

Through Nextcloud, you can easily build a relatively complete set of private network disks, multi-platform clients, coupled with open source free features, whether for personal use or company / team collective use, can basically meet a variety of office and file storage or backup needs.
