Running ownCloud on DockHive
Smallest size
ownCloud needs at least a Small HivePod (about $4 a month if it runs all the time). Smaller sizes can't be picked for it. It is billed by the hour while it runs, from your plan's included vCPU-hours first, and a stopped pod costs nothing. A Small pod needs more than the Free Tier's 1 vCPU, so use the Developer or Pro Plan.
Its databases are included
ownCloud comes with MariaDB and Redis inside the same HivePod, set up for you with their own generated passwords. Only the app can reach them, and you pay for the pod's size only.
Its own HTTPS address
ownCloud gets its own HTTPS address as soon as it's running. You can also serve it on your own domain: add the domain to the pod and the certificate is issued automatically.
Set up at install
The install form asks for one setting before ownCloud starts. Everything else, including passwords other services need, is generated for you.
Your data and backups
ownCloud's data stays on the pod's disk and survives restarts. HivePod backups include all of it, and restoring a backup brings back the same app with the same data.
