Depending on the scale you need, it's much cheaper than cloud storage providers, but obviously comes with the caveat that you need to manage everything yourself. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 years ago Ceph can be run on multiple machines and tied together into one big singular storage cluster that can be used for basically anything. It's not exactly a beginner friendly solution though as you have to do all the work. It's not a "cloud service" that you can just sign up for and push data to. permalink fedilink source parent
