Built for busy self-hosters

ElfHosted was built by experienced infrastructure engineers who spent years managing production-grade Docker Swarm and Kubernetes deployments. We created ElfHosted to solve a simple problem: self-hosting is powerful, but the operational overhead keeps most people from benefiting.

Today, ElfHosted runs on resilient, automated Kubernetes infrastructure across multiple data centers - giving you the benefits of self-hosting without the operational overhead.

Self-hosting vs ElfHosted

Self-hosting gives you complete control - and complete responsibility. You'll need hardware that runs 24/7 (electricity costs add up), time for initial setup and ongoing maintenance, skills to troubleshoot when things break, and tolerance for being on-call when your family's movie night gets interrupted.

If you value your time, having experienced professionals handle the infrastructure usually delivers better results. ElfHosted eliminates the hardware costs, power bills, late-night debugging sessions, and knowledge gaps - while still giving you control over your data and apps.
