Self-hosting Penpot: why data sovereignty matters now | Interview
📝 视频简介
SaaS has long been the default for new software, but more teams now ask where their tools run and where their data lives. Self-hosting Penpot keeps your designs, files, and comments on your own infrastructure or the cloud provider you choose.
Security policies, privacy regulations, team scale, and digital sovereignty are all pushing that question forward. Having both options means you can start with what works today and adapt as your needs change.
We sat down with Yamila Moreno, COO at Kaleidos and member of Penpot's infrastructure team, to talk about what self-hosting looks like in practice, who benefits most, when SaaS is the better fit, and why Penpot was built to run anywhere from day one. We also cover GDPR, digital sovereignty in Europe, open source as a matter of trust, and where self-hosting is heading for design and product teams.
