Self-hosted private cloud storage and secure file sharing

FileRun is a self-hosted private cloud storage and file management platform that lets you access, sync, and share files from your own server. It is designed to work directly with your existing filesystem (no special storage layer), focusing on performance, simplicity, and control.

Key Features

  • Web-based file manager for browsing and managing files stored on the server filesystem
  • Secure file sharing and collaboration features for teams and external users
  • WebDAV support for syncing and integrating with desktop/mobile clients and third-party tools
  • Large upload support with resume for interrupted transfers and efficient folder uploads
  • Works on a wide range of environments (Linux/Windows servers, NAS, VM, Docker, bare metal)
  • Pluggable authentication options including LDAP/Active Directory and OAuth2 (via plugins)
  • Branding and UI customization (themes, logos, login page text, policy links)
  • Online office integration options (for document viewing/editing using compatible services)

Use Cases

  • Replace or complement consumer cloud drives with a privately controlled file portal
  • Provide a central shared drive for small teams with web access and share links
  • Publish a file-access layer over existing server directories without migrating data

FileRun is a good fit for users who want a fast, traditional “files-first” private cloud that keeps data in standard formats and works with common protocols and existing workflows.
