'CasaOS' is a simple, easy-to-use, elegant open-source home cloud system that runs on 'ZimaBoard,' a single-board server, as well as other devices like 'Intel NUC' and 'Raspberry Pi.' It allows users to discover amazing self-hosted apps that can boost their managed cloud with over 20 pre-installed Docker-based apps and 50+ community-verified apps from the app store.
The ZimaBoard combines the expandability of an x86 single-board computer (SBC) with the power of a microserver. It uses Intel Celeron processors with dual or quad cores, dual Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports, SATA 3.0 ports, M.2 slots, HDMI 2.0 ports, USB 3.0 ports, and more.
ZimaBoard and CasaOS are a great match for anyone who wants to build a home server, media center, NAS, router, firewall, IoT gateway, VPN server, smart home hub, or any other cloud-based home solution. The ZimaBoard and CasaOS are both hackable, compatible, affordable, and powerful.
CasaOS has a user-friendly web interface that allows users to quickly and conveniently manage files, devices, settings, and more. The device is compatible with the mainstream Docker/Linux ecosystem, and is fully compatible with one-liner installation with Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, and more.
