Terminus Space
Terminus OS is a source-available, cloud-native operating system built on Kubernetes, designed to run on edge devices owned by users. Our goal is to enable users to securely store their most important data on their own hardware and access services based on this private data from anywhere in the world.
In essence, we want you to use Terminus OS like a regular computer. We hope that Terminus OS can assist individuals and organizations in managing data, business, and life effectively, all while fully owning and controlling their data.
