Olares
Description
Olares is an open-source personal cloud operating system designed to help individuals reclaim ownership of their data. Instead of depending on public cloud providers, users can deploy powerful open-source applications locally — including LLMs via Ollama, image generation via ComfyUI, and private AI search via Perplexica. It mirrors the IaaS/PaaS/SaaS model of public clouds but runs entirely on your own hardware.
