Hi I have read further and there are some interesting discussions around the topic of hosting for OwnCloud. 1. Host it yourself - if you don't you're just giving the keys of your data to some other party rather than Google, Apple, Dropbox, etc. 2. Use a provider - because at least you're managing your own data etc. The thing is if I am to replace Dropbox, Google, etc then I need to have some reliability and I would like to use GB hosting. So I have decided to take a shared data approach. I am going to split my data and use Dropbox to host my movies, I need plenty of space for these and it is not cost effective to find something that large. This is short time only and as soon as I can afford it I will purchase something like a synology and move all my movies to this and run it from home. I mostly watch movies at home anyway. But what I would like to do with the rest of my data is find a server I can install OwnCloud to and run it myself. I'll need around 100gb of space, so it won't be large - large enough I suppose. And this is the question. Does anyone know of hosting that I can use for OwnCloud please? Thanks for any help.
