Deploy UniFi OS Server on your own hardware for license free local control, secure cloud management, SD WAN, and Zero Trust networking services for MSPs.
How many folks already self-host UniFi on their own hardware vs native consoles?
Very happy to see this, I thought they were going to be pulling away from self-hostable and more flexible solutions a few years back when they stopped developing things like Unifi Video, but they seem to have made many positive movements towards openness, true ownership and self-hostability lately.
They mention in the post that other apps are coming soon. If they start letting you self host Protect, that will be huge. When they killed off Video, the only way to get their cameras to work was to buy their hardware that could run Protect. I was shocked when they allowed you to use 3rd party cameras in Protect.
They still push their exclusive features and services in the UI’s pretty hard, but I’m OK with that while they are making moves like this, and letting you have third party cameras mixed into their ecosystem reasonably easily.
