<h2>What is Matrix?</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p><a href="https://matrix.org/">Matrix</a> is a modern and decentralised,
|
|
open-source chat solution backed by a dynamic community. It provides many
|
|
advanced user-focused features such as end-to-end encryption, bridging or audio
|
|
& video calls.</a></p>

<ul>

<li>
|
|
The strongest point of Matrix is <b>federation</b>: a Matrix homeserver - which is
|
|
what we offer - allows to manage your own community... and to join the whole
|
|
Matrix network. You will be able to exchange with users on any other Matrix
|
|
server without any special configuration!
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
End-to-end encryption (E2EE) means that - when enabled - only the sender and
|
|
intended receiver(s) will be able to read the messages: even ungleich, who
|
|
manages the matrix server, will not be able to access the content of E2EE
|
|
messages.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Our Matrix servers are provided with a TURN server, meaning that you'll be
|
|
able to use voice and video calls out of the box.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
We support bridging to other networks such as Mattermost instances, IRC,
|
|
Slack, Telegram and more via <a
|
|
href="https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge">Matterbridge</a>.

The evolution of Matrix is managed through an open governance process,
|
|
supervised by [The Matrix.org Foundation](https://matrix.org/foundation).
|
|
Moreover, all the software backing the network is [Free and Open
|
|
Source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open-source_software), which
|
|
guarantees quality and security.

Both end-to-end encryption and federation are *built-in* into Matrix. The
|
|
former will be enabled by default in the near future, making it a valuable tool
|
|
for activists and privacy-minded people all across the world.

We host your Matrix homeserver in our [own
|
|
datacenter](/u/projects/data-center-light/) in Switzerland, which we believe to
|
|
be as ecologically-friendly as a datacenter can get: we use old buildings,
|
|
second-hand hydroelectric, passive cooling and are directly plugged into a
|
|
hydroelectric power plant.

<h2>Growing fast!</h2>
|
|
<p>As of February 2020, the Matrix network supports ~13.5M visible
|
|
accounts, ~5.0M messages a day, ~40.000 federated servers and even <a
|
|
href="https://archive.fosdem.org/2019/schedule/event/matrix_french_state/">governments</a>!</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>A lot of privacy, security and usability work is going on... which
|
|
means that Matrix will get even more awesome in the coming months!</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can follow the <a href="https://matrix.org/blog/posts">Matrix.org
|
|
blog</a> to get frequent updates on Matrix's development, and chat with
|

<h2>Hosted Matrix Chat</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>We will provide you with your own dedicated Matrix 'Home Server', as well as
|
|
a hosted web client. Matrix requires a domain name in order to join the global
|
|
networks, which will appear in your username (e.g.
|
|
<i>@penguin:example.0co2.cloud</i>): you can either use a subdomain of
|
|
<i>0co2.cloud</i> (e.g. <i>example.0co2.cloud</i>) or your own domain name. We
|
|
will deploy a <a href="https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge">Matterbridge</a>)
|
|
instance (bridging to Mattermost, IRC, Slack, Telegram, ...) on demand.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>There are <a href="https://matrix.org/clients/">many Matrix
|
|
clients</a>, although we <b>strongly recommend</b> <a
|
|
href="https://about.riot.im/features">Riot</a> which is the most
|
|
advanced at the moment. Be aware, however, that you might be a bit
|
|
confused with its UI/UX at first (there is ongoing work to improve
|
|
onboarding): we encourage you to <a href="https://riot.im/app/">try
|
|
Riot/Matrix</a> first if your are not already familiar with it.
|

<h2>Transparent Costs</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The cost of our Matrix-as-a-Service offer is divided between a base maintenance
|
|
fee and the price of the dedicated Virtual Machine (VM) we deploy for you in
|
|
our <a href="/u/projects/data-center-light">own datacenter</a>. There is no artifical
|
|
restriction on the number of users or size of rooms: the only limit is the
|
|
resources we allocate to your node. We will extend them on demand, following
|
|
the pricing model (CPU, RAM, Disk) of our <a href="https://datacenterlight.ch/">VM
|
|
offer</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="alert alert-info">
|
|
We also offer custom-sized deployment. You can discuss our offer with us by
|
|
email or even on matrix, via <a
|
|
href="https://matrix.to/#/%23matrix:ungleich.ch">#matrix:ungleich.ch</a>!

|
|
on our <a href="https://redmine.ungleich.ch/projects/open-infrastructure/wiki/Ungleich_Matrix-as-a-Service_(MaaSk">Matrix-as-a-Service FAQ</a> and on <a href="https://matrix.org/discover"> Matrix's official documentation</a>.

|
You might be also interested in our <a
|
|
href="../zero-carbon-chat">Mattermost-based chat offer</a>, which might be
|
|
closer to what you expect for a enterprise team chat at the moment. We use both
|
|
at ungleich, since Matrix is especially convenient to reach out to the world!
