## What it is
Cloudbox is an Ansible-based toolkit that rapidly deploys a full Docker containerized cloud media server stack on Ubuntu x64 servers. It bundles Plex, Sonarr, Radarr, NZBGet, ruTorrent, Tautulli, and many other media automation apps with cloud storage integration via rclone.

## Use cases
- deploy a plex media server on a vps
- automate sonarr radarr plex setup
- stream media from google drive with rclone
- set up usenet and torrent automation stack
- one-command install of dockerized media apps
- migrate media server between cloud providers with backup and restore

## When to choose
- you want a complete, pre-integrated media automation stack deployed quickly via Ansible
- you run Ubuntu x64 and want Plex plus *arr apps with cloud storage offloading
- you value community add-ons and an established wiki for media server setups

## When to avoid
- you need a currently maintained project - releases and activity have largely stopped since 2023
- you run non-Ubuntu or ARM hardware, which has limited or no support
- you want a minimal setup rather than a large opinionated stack of many services
