Your storage. In Europe.

nokkela.cloud provides S3-compatible object storage whose API matches AWS S3, so applications, SDKs and backup software that already speak S3 can use it. In practice you point the client at our endpoint and authenticate with the access keys issued for your buckets; bucket names, objects and policies behave the way your tooling expects. Because the interface is a standard, data can be moved in and out again without a proprietary format.

Yes – nokkela.cloud offers Nextcloud with the S3 object storage as its storage backend, both from a single source. That combination pairs scalable object storage with the collaboration layer users see: files, sharing, team folders and desktop and mobile apps sit on top, while the objects themselves live in the S3 buckets. You deal with one provider and one login; both halves run on our own infrastructure in Europe.

No – the erasure coding used at nokkela.cloud stores data redundantly within the cluster and protects against hardware failures such as a failed disk or node, but it is not a backup. Redundancy reproduces a deletion or an encryption by ransomware just as faithfully as it reproduces valid data, so a separate backup with its own retention is still needed. The S3 storage itself can serve as that backup target.

Access at nokkela.cloud is governed by fine-grained permissions, keys and policies. On the S3 side each application or team gets its own access keys; bucket policies decide which key may read, write or list what – an agent that only needs to read an archive gets no write rights. On the Nextcloud side the same principle applies through team folders and shares, so a share with a partner covers only the folder you release.

Nextcloud storage from nokkela.cloud is meant as a sovereign alternative to Dropbox and the like: sync and share, team folders and shares, and desktop and mobile apps give users the same everyday workflow. The difference is where the data sits – on our own infrastructure in Europe, GDPR-compliant, with no transfer to third countries and no dependency on a US cloud. The same platform covers secure file exchange with customers and business partners.

Object storage at nokkela.cloud scales per GB: capacity grows with what you actually store instead of being bought as a fixed appliance, and billing follows the same per-GB logic transparently. There is no standard price list, because the scope – volume, retention, how many buckets and users – determines the price; you receive a quote that fits once we have looked at your requirement. The initial consultation of up to 30 minutes is free.

Yes – nokkela.cloud provides scalable S3 storage as the data and knowledge base for the AI agents built at nokkela.io, with documents and results kept under your control. Agents read source documents from a bucket and write their results back into a bucket, each with their own access keys, so what the agents work on stays in storage in Europe instead of being uploaded to an external cloud service.
