### Structure and usage
|
|
|
|
 
|
|
|
|
NextCloud is a Cloud Management solution with integrated Apps that aims at managing and syncing a vast array of data between connected devices. This section gives an overview of the structure of the service.
|
|
|
|
 
|
|
|
|
#### Host
|
|
|
|
NextCloud needs to be hosted on a server with two options available:
|
|
1. Rent space with a service provider
|
|
2. [[Selfhosting|Self-host]] (Server, Raspberry Pi, NAS)
|
|
|
|
I selected to rent space with [tab.digital](https://tab.digital)
|
|
|
|
 
|
|
|
|
#### Services
|
|
|
|
NextCloud offers various services in what they called Apps, similar to Phone Apps:
|
|
1. Mail
|
|
2. Calendar
|
|
3. Contact Management
|
|
4. Photo
|
|
5. Music
|
|
6. Notes
|
|
7. Password Management
|
|
|
|
As well as a wide array of other apps available [here](https://apps.nextcloud.com/)
|
|
|
|
In addition, NextCloud support End-2-End Encryption.
