Own your data.Stop renting your infrastructure.
Business servers, network storage, backup pipelines, and self-hosted apps — file sync, password managers, cameras, media, and internal tools running on hardware you own, backed up offsite, reachable securely from anywhere.
Growing cloud bills, scattered files, no real backup, or apps you want in-house.
Your data on your hardware with tested local and offsite backups.
Enterprise NAS software, containerized apps, encrypted offsite replication.
- One central, permissioned home for company files instead of five laptops, three drives, and someone's email attachments.
- Snapshots and versioning that roll back deleted or ransomware-encrypted files in minutes.
- Encrypted offsite backup that survives fire, theft, or total hardware loss — verified by actual test restores.
- Self-hosted replacements for stacking SaaS subscriptions: file sync, password vault, camera storage, media, internal wikis.
Which subscriptions are worth replacing with owned infrastructure, and which cloud services are genuinely worth keeping.
Redundancy level, snapshot schedule, and how much usable space you need for the next three years — not just today.
What gets backed up where: local snapshots, second device, and which encrypted offsite destination fits your budget.
A focused lane for focused work.
This page should help a buyer decide quickly: is this the right service, what gets built, and what happens next?
File servers and network storage (NAS)
Central storage for the office or home: shared drives, user permissions, snapshots that undo mistakes and ransomware, and file sync that replaces per-seat cloud storage subscriptions.
Backup pipelines that actually restore
The 3-2-1 rule done properly: local snapshots, a second copy, and encrypted offsite replication — with scheduled test-restores, because a backup nobody has restored from is a hope, not a backup.
Self-hosted business apps
File sync and document collaboration, password managers, camera recording, media servers, monitoring dashboards, and internal tools — running as maintained services on your hardware, secured behind modern VPN access.
One central, permissioned home for company files instead of five laptops, three drives, and someone's email attachments.
Audit the data
Where your files, backups, cameras, and subscriptions actually live today — and what happens if any of it dies tomorrow.
Design the system
Hardware spec, storage layout, backup targets, app list, access model, and a flat quote before anything is bought.
Build and migrate
Server build, storage pools, app deployment, data migration, backup pipeline, and remote access — tested end to end.
Verify and hand off
Test restore performed with you watching, monitoring configured, documentation delivered, optional care plan.
Pick the closest starting point.
Each option is a clean first conversation, not a bloated package. We narrow it after the intake.
Hardware spec, storage layout, backup plan, app list, access model, flat quote.
Built, configured, and migrated — storage, apps, users, and permissions live.
Local snapshots + encrypted offsite replication, scheduled, monitored, and test-restored.
Admin credentials, documentation, monitoring alerts to your inbox, care recommendations.
Business file server + backup
For teams whose files live everywhere and nowhere. Central storage, permissions, snapshots, and offsite backup that has actually been test-restored.
- Server build
- Shared drives + permissions
- Snapshots
- Offsite replication
Self-hosted app stack
For owners tired of stacking subscriptions. File sync, password vault, cameras, media, and internal tools on hardware you own.
- App selection
- Containerized deploy
- VPN-only access
- TLS everywhere
Backup rescue
For businesses running on luck. We audit what exists, build the 3-2-1 pipeline around your current setup, and prove it restores.
- Backup audit
- Local + offsite pipeline
- Encryption
- Restore test
Before the first call.
Is self-hosting actually cheaper than cloud subscriptions?+
Often, yes — hardware pays for itself against per-seat fees in one to three years. We show the honest math per service, and keep cloud where it genuinely wins.
What if the server fails?+
That is what the 3-2-1 backup design is for: redundant disks, snapshots, and an encrypted offsite copy. We test restores before we call it done.
Can I access my files away from the office?+
Yes — securely, over a modern VPN, from any device. Nothing gets exposed to the open internet.
Do you run this stack yourselves?+
Yes. araNET runs its own production server infrastructure — file sync, password vault, monitoring, git hosting, and encrypted offsite backup — on exactly this architecture.
Who maintains it after setup?+
You can, with our documentation — or a care plan covers updates, monitoring, disk health, and backup verification.
