Self Hosted MediaWiki

There is a turnkey solution from Cloudron I have been previewing. Its a pretty sweet system and the bar to entry for both business and personal are very affordable. Its is a paid thing but does have a free version that supports 2 apps. Looking at this being one of our small business solutions especially for new businesses

  • Can run self-hosted or in a VPS
  • Can run as a VM (currently running in my XCP-ng core) or on physical hardware (colo)
  • Is basically a docker container host based on Ubuntu server 20 LTS with a web based front end
  • Web based apps are delivered via “Cloudron App Store”
  • Let’s Encrypt enabled
  • DNS APIs for ease of external DNS configuration with many popular hosts
  • It includes an optional email server, but works with external email like GMail
  • Some of the included apps are
  • Invoice Ninja (v4.5.35) Working to bring v5 of Invoice Ninja to the platform
  • MediWiki (v1.35.1)
  • Confluance (v7.11.1)
  • RocketChat (v.3.12.1)
  • Discorse ( v2.6.3)
  • Grafana (v7.4.3)
  • Nextcloud (v20.0.8)
  • NodeBB (1.16.2)
  • SyncThing (v1.14.0)
    Many many other things too

For Docker Devs

  • GitHub Pages (v212)
  • Docker Registry ( 2.7.1 (Registry UI 1.5.4))
    Even have the ability to build apps to be hosted on Cloudron
  • Cloudron Build Service

Seems to be professionally run, is actively supported and seems to have a polish that similar offerings do not have. Also they have an online live demo
