Migration
What changes when you host it yourself
The data stops leaving your network, and so does the responsibility for it: backups, the restore you have actually tested, and the disk it all sits on.
Feature parity is never exact. Read what each recipe states about limitations and the smoke test before planning a migration.
The bill turns into work: updates, certificates and an eye on the release notes. The catalog shows how much of that each recipe asks for.

- Applications with a minimum of 1 GB RAM or lessSmall declared resource requirements for a VPS or thin client, with new metrics, notifications, notes and utility recipes. The limit applies to each application separately.
- Knowing when your server stopsAvailability checks, server-resource history, notification delivery and a shared dashboard serve different jobs. Build only the layers you need and monitor from outside the server.
