Server requirements for self-hosting
It’s possible to install Webvideo on your own dedicated server.
Please make sure your server fits the following minimal requirements:
Processor | Xeon E3-1270 v3 |
|
RAM | 16Gb |
|
Storage | 500Gb | No special disk partitioning is required, if lvm is supposed to be used, the main free space should be left under the root. |
LAN | 1Gbps | We recommend servers with unlimited 1gbps connection speed because live video streaming websites generate a lot of traffic. |
Operating system | CentOS 7 Linux |
|
Additional software | Plesk panel | If you would not like to use Plesk, then your hosting provider should configure the bunch of Nginx and Apache for proper site work. |
Self-hosted installation is possible with installing an individual streaming web-server on your hardware. An Independent copy of a streaming web-server costs $1000 per instance. If you install the system on your own server, you can not continue using our streaming cloud for transmitting video.
Please, make sure that the chosen Hosting company provides the following services as well:
timely backups - it’s important to have backups to restore databases, galleries, transaction history, and other important data in case of emergency.
a system administrator who can quickly respond to emerging problems
Please take into account that using third-party hosting will increase the time spent on coordinating administration and software support.
You can also order a dedicated server from our company.
Here is the list of specs of the servers that we provide.
