Nextcloud: A Self-Hosting Alternative for All
Manage episode 398233907 series 2922951
Step into the Nextcloud HQ in Berlin as we are joined by Jos Poortvliet, Co-founder and Director of Communications for Nextcloud, for a wide-ranging and revealing look into the open-source, decentralized ethos of Nextcloud.
This in-person interview follows Jos's early days in tech and work at OwnCloud and sets the stage for a dive into Nextcloud's commitment to open-source, data sovereignty, and their broader mission to return data control to users as the company scales past 100 team members and thousands of customers.
Throughout the interview, we covered the business model of Nextcloud, learned about some lesser-known features and use cases of the Nextcoud platform (Hub 7), and learned how they integrate AI into the product while still maintaining their core values around open-source, data security, and privacy.
