Application hosting

Hosting Wiki.js

A self-hosted wiki for team documentation and knowledge bases. Wiki.js runs on Node.js and stores content in a database; PostgreSQL is the recommended choice for a new installation.

Must have

Hard prerequisites

  • A dedicated domain or subdomain; deployment below a URL subfolder is unsupported.
  • Node.js 22.0+ or 24.0+ for a native installation; the container bundles Node.js.
  • A supported database and persistent storage.

Recommended

Documented guidance

No further general recommendations are published for this version.

Published starting requirements

Official Linux guidance specifies at least 1 GB RAM and recommends at least 1 GB dedicated storage. Two or more CPU cores are recommended for background workers. GB values are retained as published rather than treated as exact GiB values.

We only compare what providers publish. A RAM figure alone can't confirm compatibility or production capacity.

Deploy with

Supported paths

  • Official Docker image
  • Native Node.js installation

The host must provide

Runtime

Node.js
22.0+ or 24.0+ for the documented 2.x releases
PostgreSQL
Recommended database; select a maintained release

Storage

Persistent data

Allow room for the database and uploaded assets. Back up both content and configuration. Other database engines supported in 2.x are not supported in the planned 3.x release.

Step by step

Plan a Wiki.js installation

  1. Prepare the database

    Create a dedicated database and service account; enable pg_trgm when using PostgreSQL search.

    Official instructions
  2. Select the image

    Use ghcr.io/requarks/wiki with an explicit major or minor version tag instead of latest. Configure the documented database environment variables.

    Official instructions

Security

Before you go public

  • Keep database credentials outside the public document root.
  • Control wiki access and serve the dedicated hostname over HTTPS.

Cost

Beyond the server price

  • Account for database storage and backups alongside application hosting.
