Buy domain permanently [OFF-TOPIC]

Question

Hi, can i buy a domain name permanently? If so, where?
Also I plan to use a raspberry pi to use as Server. What are the security flaws? I want to use it as a personal cloud storage and as a fun project and the domain as an investment...

Answer 1

@synorax thanks for your answer. I actually want to use as a personal cloud storage für max. 10 people so I dont think the processing would be such a Problem. I'm more concerned about somebody hacking in.
And i want to purchase the domain once that it's mine forever. Thanks for your answer though :)

Many places to buy domain names. Usually can pay monthly or annually.

Using a Pi as a cloud server is probably not a great idea. The processing limitations would make it nearly impossible. Keep in mind that in cloud computing, you are providing software to users on your network. Each instance of a user running a program will use significant resources. This is usually done by using RAID array storage and fault tolerance devices, etc. A Pi would not scale up that large easily or cheaply.
