build your own cloud

Now you can deploy and run your own hyper-secure file sharing platform, by downloading FileCloud’s Community Edition. Visit ntck.co/filecloud and download FileCloud Community Edition as a self-hosted solution, on your Windows or Linux servers or preferred IaaS provider (AWS, Azure). (no code required) In this video, NetworkChuck will walk you through how to create your own cloud, either at home, on-prem or in the cloud! NetworkChuck demos the setup of FileCloud and Nextcloud, two excellent dropbox, google drive and microsoft one drive replacements. These are great options for both personal and business.

Your ability to explain things in a relaxing and fun way makes IT look less intimidating. I feel like a kid playing a video game, watching a guide on how to beat the level rather than watching a 'Death by Powerpoint' presentation. Thank you fellow systems administrator!

next video: build your own internet from scratch

You are the best! I started seeing your videos when I was starting in IT as a HelpDesk. Now I am working as a Cloud Engineer and before as a sysadmin. You teached me a lot and the best is that you make the curiosity grows for all the technologies you show in your videos. Greetings from Argentina!

I am on IT for 20 years and your way to explain things are very simple..

I also used to be a self-taught programmer before I launched my own software development company. It's cool that today we can watch such videos for education purposes in Youtube! 👍

Great, but Nextcloud needs it's own video to do it justice. I've never heard of Filecloud before so that's good to know!

Minor change, always apply minimal permission with AWS IAM. For the EC2 instance's role: vs S3:* for resources, actually just give it the bucket name. You might need to do two resources, one bucket name, the other bucket name/*. This will limit access to only that bucket which is best practice for security 😉.

idk how you and your editor do it but you both make this long and drawn-out process actually entertaining to watch and learn. Thank you so much lol keep up the great content <3

I’ll be honest, I watched this all the way to the end attentively. It was very interesting, yet I’m not quite sure what I learnt but I did learn something I’m sure. I have a Synology NAS and I guess that’s my personal Cloud. I guess if I needed another cloud, I can remember Fileshare and probably just remember to come back and rewatch this video as it was amazing.

No idea how your channel got on my feed, but your videos are so clear and concise with a little bit of Dad humor it is awesome, thank you very much and keep it up.

Perfect timing, Chuck! I set up my own proxmox server and now I can host this!

Thank you so much! Since 2 weeks Im contemplating on switching from dropbox to self-hosted alternatives and this video sealed the deal!

Had to pause @1:02 to come and comment. Your production value is off the hook and instantly spoke to me directly. You got some magic sauce dude, I'm looking forward to the rest of the video!

I have not owned a computer for over 10 years! now I have one, I found myself to be incredibly out of date with basic computer use. So happy to come across your channel which mixes the perfect blend of advanced computer use and easy watching. Love your stuff bro, don't stop the videos anytime soon!

Just to add - as I checked the Community Edition, license if FREE for 1 year only. Thanks for this awesome video Chuck!

Omg chuck! You never fail to amaze me with your knowledge and with your teaching ability. You have been the backbone of my education in IT and in cybersecurity. Thank you for all your content. You should have your own networking and cybersecurity boot camp! I am going to attempt to try this setup myself. You inspire me to keep reaching and growing!

I know this is a few months old but THANK YOU!!! Got this set up on prem with ubuntu flawlessly!

Thank you so much Chuck! I learned a lot in a short period of time. You are an inspiration Time to start setting up the home lab. I lihe both clouds. I wish I knew all of this before i went on the roller coaster ride with the single bay My Cloud gen 1. This is exactly what I want to cut the cord. Again thanks a lot for the explicit directives.

A fun video you would do an amazing job with would be building a home/small business on-prem security system. Including security cams, smart home features with Home Assistant, and whatever else you can think of! Emphasis on PRIVACY and SECURITY. You always do a great job and we appreciate your awesome content!
