Run NocoDB in India with a single click. This open-source Airtable-style tool turns any database into a spreadsheet with grids, forms and more.
NocoDB converts a plain database into a grid you can click through like a spreadsheet. It works as a free, open alternative to Airtable, offering kanban boards, calendars, galleries, custom forms and a built-in API alongside the main grid view.
Install NocoDB straight from our panel, or review our hosting plans first.
This app needs at least our Starter plan. Current plans and prices are shown on this page, and all listed amounts exclude GST. Every installation includes HTTPS, lets you attach a domain you own, comes with a GST invoice, and runs from our Noida data centre.
The moment you install it, NocoDB comes up over HTTPS. Whoever signs in first on that address becomes its owner.
NocoDB puts a spreadsheet face on a database, so people comfortable with rows and columns can work with it directly. Records appear as a grid, with kanban, calendar, gallery or form layouts available for the same data. Connect it to a PostgreSQL or MySQL database you manage yourself, and edits made through the interface write directly to the real tables. Alternatively, you can create a brand-new base directly inside NocoDB, which then builds its own storage automatically.
Take care with that second option. Once a base is linked to an outside database, inserting a column through the grid runs an ALTER TABLE statement against your live schema — and anyone you have added as an editor can trigger the same change. Give NocoDB a dedicated database account limited to the access it actually needs, and lean on viewer or commenter roles wherever possible.
By default, NocoDB stores its own configuration — views, filters and user accounts — in a local SQLite file, which works well for a small group. As usage grows, point the NC_DB environment variable at a PostgreSQL database instead, to move that metadata off SQLite. Also set NC_AUTH_JWT_SECRET to a value of your own, so that session tokens remain valid across restarts. Internally the app listens on port 8080, and you can send a public form link to people who do not have an account at all.
| Workload | Plan | Note |
|---|---|---|
| A lightweight CRM or small team tracker covering a few thousand rows | Starter | NocoDB stays lightweight when it relies on its default SQLite metadata. |
| Multiple teams working with large tables stored on an outside database | Pro | Bigger grids and more simultaneous users generate extra load on both NocoDB and its database. |
The Starter plan covers 1 vCPU, 1 GB of RAM and 20 GB of disk space, with room for up to 2 apps — enough to run NocoDB beside your own code on one server. Billing is monthly, and the listed rate excludes 18% GST.
Install NocoDB
Yes — point it at an external PostgreSQL or MySQL instance, for instance a PostgreSQL app installed from our App Store on the same server.
Only when someone changes the structure from inside NocoDB. Viewing or editing rows only touches the data, but introducing a new column rewrites the structure. Configure a database account that permits exactly what you intend to allow.
Inside a SQLite file in its data directory, unless you point the NC_DB variable at a PostgreSQL or MySQL URL instead. Make sure that folder is backed up.
Yes. Hand out the public link from the form view, and add a captcha-style check if it will be reachable from the open internet.
Pick an app from our App Store, choose which app server it should run on, and click Install. The chosen app receives a unique, HTTPS-secured web address immediately. Its login passwords are created automatically and shown to you a single time, and the whole app becomes usable within a minute or two.
