Third-party cloud hosting

As an alternative to hosting your own Trilium instance, there are two services out there that provide out of the box support for Trilium.

Cloud instance providers#

PikaPods#

  1. Go to pikapods.com  and sign up.
  2. In the “Available Apps” section, look for "TriliumNext
     and select “Run your own”.
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your own cloud hosted instance.

PikaPods generally updates their Trilium instances to the latest version within a two-week interval after a new version is released.

trilium.cc#

Trilium.cc is a cloud service dedicated to hosting a Trilium instance.

Matching your version with the cloud instance#

Please note that once you set up Synchronization between a cloud instance and desktop clients, it's important that the version of the desktop application and the server match up.

When setting up a cloud instance, it's best to check the version of the server by accessing it via a web browser and going to the About section. It's best that both the desktop and the server have the same App version; however it's generally OK to update the desktop to a newer version than the server if it has the same Sync version.

If the Sync version between the server and the desktop application doesn't match, synchronization will not work.
