Start a team

Do you want to share Olares with your family, friends, or coworkers? Here's everything you need to know about creating a collaborative Olares environment.

Why Olares for teams

Olares's multi-user design efficiently shares system resources, eliminating redundant deployments that would otherwise increase with each new user.

When you share Olares with others, you can:

  • Create a powerful workspace using professional-grade open source alternatives without subscription fees.
  • Enable everyone to access resource-intensive AI applications without system overhead.
  • Build a central hub for shared files, photos, and documents with secure access from anywhere.
  • Store and manage shared files, photos, and documents.

Transform your system into the hub that best serves your group - a smart home control center, a workspace, or a media server. With the rich applications in Olares, you can customize the environment to match how your team wants to work and collaborate.

The Olares cluster

Your Olares installation creates a Kubernetes-based environment that efficiently supports multiple users while minimizing system overhead. Think of your Olares installation as a digital home for your team. When you set it up, your device becomes a private server that everyone can access securely.

Your role as administrator

As an Olares administrator, you'll mainly be responsible for:

  • Managing user accounts for team members
  • Installing and maintaining system-wide applications that everyone shares
  • Ensuring fair resource allocation across the system
