OwnCloud "Infinite Scale"

OCIS is an alternative to OwnCloud/NextCloud which comes with a much more limited feature-set, but eliminates the performance and (🤞) stability issues inherent to those legacy codebases due to their having been written in PHP. OCIS is written in Go and provides a singles static binary, which creates that strict barrier between application code and persistent data which has bitten me so many times.

First run

If you've just cloned this to a new machine, you have to bootstrap the service:

$ mkdir -p mounts/{config,data}
$ docker compose run init

Subsequent runs

The application requires nothing special, just a docker compose up.
