/ scripts we pre-tune for

If you're running it, we've hosted it.

We've set up Apache vhosts and tuned my.cnf for every one of these. Bring yours — or pick the closest match and we'll port your config.

XFileSharing Pro

mod_xsendfile compiled, premium tier traffic-shaping ready, MariaDB indexes pre-applied for `files`, `users`, `transactions`.

XVideoSharing

FFmpeg + NVENC pipeline, HLS segments on Vault, thumbnails on NVMe, MariaDB tuned for views / votes tables.

YetiShare

S3-compatible backend (MinIO / Garage), resumable large uploads, Redis sessions, RDS-style read replica on request.

KVS — Kernel Video Sharing

Adult-tube optimised — geo-blocking ACLs, premium token URLs, hotlink protection, NL/UA jurisdiction split.

Clipbucket

Open-source video CMS, scheduled FFmpeg transcode worker, Apache + PHP-FPM tuned for memcached sessions.

PHPmotion

Legacy but heavy users — Apache + mod_xsendfile, MySQL 8 with InnoDB tuning, file-by-file CDN offload.

Pixelcms

Lightweight tube CMS, PostgreSQL + Redis combo, FFmpeg sidecar for thumbnail generation.

ProjectSend

B2B file delivery, smaller scale — single dedicated + Vault S. SMTP relay tuned for client notifications.

ShareIt Pro / WJunction

Multi-mirror filehosts with API. We do health-checks across multiple boxes, hot-failover via Anycast.

Custom PHP stack

Roll your own. We give you root, IPMI, real bandwidth. Bring any LAMP/LEMP app — including yours.

/ why operators move to us

Six things you can hold us to.

01

Liberal jurisdiction

Two flags, two rule-sets — Netherlands (EU-safe, GDPR-aligned) and Ukraine (non-EU). You pick which content runs where.

02

Unmetered means unmetered

No 95th-percentile, no per-GB egress, no "fair use" clause buried at line 47 of the AUP. Push line rate every day of the month — same price.

03

DDoS included by default

1.6 Tbit/s scrubbing in front of every PoP. Always-on. Filtering begins inside 10 seconds. Free for every server.

04

We know these scripts

We've tuned XFileSharing, XVideoSharing, YetiShare, KVS, Clipbucket. We won't tell you to "just upgrade your VPS" — we'll send a my.cnf and an nginx vhost.

05

No shaping from us

Throttle your free tier however you want. Our pipe to your switch port isn't shaped, prioritised or QoS'd by anyone but you.

06

Real engineers, real chat

Telegram, email, ticket. Median first-response under 7 minutes. The person who answers has shell access to the box you're asking about.

/ faq

Operator questions we hear all the time.

Yes. Apache + PHP-FPM + MariaDB is the default install. mod_xsendfile is compiled, X-Accel-Redirect is wired for nginx if you prefer. We have my.cnf templates for the common file-sizes — ask the NOC.

Run your tube on real iron. Provisioning in hours.
