Possible option:
- Calibre library gets one-way synced to Synology NAS which runs 24/7 and available via public DNS name. (I do that for unrelated reasons)
- Synology runs sftp/ftps (in addition to regular VERY insecure ftp) servers (my Synology NAS doesn't do that, I prefer WebDAV to ftp/sftp)
- CC connects to this server.

as far as I understood, CC doesn't modify remote library in Cloud Connection mode so oneway sync is ok.

I would possible use such thing but will prefer WebDAV instead of ftp/sftp.
