Self-hosted: Run it yourself
Run it yourself
Software you install on servers you choose. The vendor never holds your data.
Where the data lives and who can reach it depends on where you run it. On Canadian-owned or your own hardware, this is the only route to full possession (the P in OCAP). You also carry the operations: patching, backups, on-call.
