Speaker

Paul Mayero

Description

Google Drive has a storage limit of 15 GB. This capacity is almost always filled by photos since they have become easy to take because of the advances of technology. Once the 15GB capacity is exceeded, users are not able to send or receive emails on their Gmail accounts. At this point, they are forced to pay Google to access their email. This is horrendous. The essence of this workshop will be to show attendees just how easy they can self-host their own photo cloud using Ente[1] - an open source google photos alternative - on Oracle Cloud and save money while doing it.
