We are releasing Bring Your Own Server (BYOS) - our most requested feature for users who want complete infrastructure autonomy. Explore all [OpenClaw Hosting capabilities](/features).

What Is BYOS?

BYOS allows you to connect your existing servers or rented VPS instances to OpenClaw Hosting. We take care of OpenClaw installation, configuration, updates, and health monitoring while you retain full root access and administrative control.

Why Users Want BYOS

Our community has varied requirements that BYOS addresses:

  • **Data residency** - Keep information in specific countries or jurisdictions
  • **Existing capacity** - Put servers you are already paying for to work
  • **Cost efficiency** - Lower per-unit costs for high-volume deployments
  • **Compliance** - Meet industry-specific data handling regulations
  • Supported Cloud Providers

    Link servers from:

  • DigitalOcean
  • Vultr
  • Hetzner
  • AWS (EC2)
  • Akamai (Linode)
  • Custom Server (any machine with SSH access)
  • How BYOS Works

    1. Connect your server via SSH or provider API integration

    2. Our system provisions and configures OpenClaw automatically
