Deploy Apache Tika in one click installation.
Open-source content analysis toolkit that detects and extracts metadata and text from over a thousand file types.
What you can build with Apache Tika
Apache Tika is a content detection and analysis framework that exposes a single REST API for extracting text, metadata, and structure from more than one thousand file formats including PDF, Microsoft Office, OpenDocument, EPUB, images, audio, video, and archive files. Instead of integrating dozens of parser libraries per format, applications send raw bytes to Tika Server and receive normalized output.
Self-hosting Tika Server on your own VPS keeps document contents on infrastructure you control — important for confidential contracts, internal records, and regulated data — while removing per-document fees and rate limits charged by hosted extraction APIs. The full image ships with Tesseract OCR and GDAL so scanned PDFs and image files are searchable out of the box.
Key features of Apache Tika
Thousand-plus formats
Parse PDF, Office, OpenDocument, EPUB, HTML, RTF, MBOX, images, audio, video, and dozens of archive formats through one consistent REST interface.
Built-in OCR
The full image bundles Tesseract with English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish language packs so scanned PDFs and image files yield searchable text without extra services.
REST API server
Endpoints for text extraction, metadata, language detection, and MIME-type identification let any backend integrate document processing with a simple HTTP POST.
Language detection
Identify the language of any extracted text automatically, enabling downstream search indexing, translation, and routing pipelines without bundling extra libraries.
Pipeline ready
Acts as the extraction stage for search platforms, RAG ingestion, e-discovery workflows, and digital-preservation systems that need normalized text from heterogeneous documents.
Apache-licensed
Permissive Apache 2.0 licensing and an active Apache Software Foundation community mean no vendor lock-in, no per-document fees, and a stable long-term roadmap.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Hostinger Agent and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
