Hi Pierre,

I'm currently running an OC instance on a virtualized 1 core / 1 GB machine for serving 4 users. It's truly enough.

The server is hosted in Gandi.net infrastructure on their IAAS solution for 2 years now. Never had any issue. It also hosts some more services (Coppermine, Mumble server, etc.) without any trouble - I guess that as far as you've got a few number of users, it will run fine.

I can provide you with further information as you need.

Hello everyone,

I use owncloud on a daily basis for the news app which works great but I now also want to use it more and more for data backup and some sync. My owncloud instance is hosted in a shared server and works fine when the WebDav interface is not used since my webhoster restricts such use which is not considered "standard" web-hosting service (fair enough)

So now, I am considering getting a VPS to run my owncloud instance and also get better performances on the webdav side. However, I am a bit lost when it come to choosing the amount of cores/ram I need (space disk is not a problem, I just need a lot :) ) I do not have many users, mostly 2 but let's say that 5 users to a big maximum of 10 might happen (close relatives somehow). The machine will also handle a mail server but I do not think that is a problem for any setup I know of. I am not sure about what owncloud needs to run smoothly under such a light load (okay, define light ...) but my first guess was 2 virtual cores + 2 Gb of ram (my hosting allows 728 at the moment).

Anyone has any experience dimensioning small owncloud installations ?
