Nhost, the open source backend as a service, a self hosted Firebase alternative ready on first boot.
Nhost is a backend as a service that bundles a PostgreSQL database, an instant GraphQL API from the Hasura engine, authentication, S3 compatible storage, serverless functions and a management dashboard. Developers use it as a complete self hosted backend for web, mobile and server applications.
cloudimg provides Nhost hardened and fully patched on Ubuntu 24.04, preinstalled as a pinned Docker Compose stack on a dedicated data disk. Every secret, including the JWT signing key, is minted per VM on first boot, and the image carries 24/7 support.
