Deploy PocketBase in one click installation.
Open-source backend in a single executable — realtime database, authentication, file storage, and admin UI included out of the box.
What you can build with PocketBase
PocketBase packs a realtime SQLite database, user authentication (email/password and OAuth2), file storage, and an admin dashboard into a single Go binary. It auto-generates REST and WebSocket APIs for every collection you create, so you can go from zero to a working backend in minutes without spinning up separate services.
Self-hosting PocketBase on your own VPS keeps all user data and application records under your control, eliminates per-request cloud BaaS fees, and gives you a persistent, always-warm server with predictable costs as your app scales.
Key features of PocketBase
Realtime Database
SQLite-backed collections with automatic REST and WebSocket APIs let you subscribe to live data changes without writing a single line of backend code.
Built-in Authentication
Email/password sign-up and OAuth2 providers (Google, GitHub, and more) come pre-configured, removing the need for a separate identity service.
File Storage
Upload and serve files directly through PocketBase with automatic image resizing, or connect an S3-compatible bucket for scalable external storage.
Admin Dashboard
A built-in web UI lets you manage collections, browse records, configure auth providers, and monitor activity without writing database queries.
JavaScript Hooks
Add custom validation, business logic, and API route extensions using JavaScript — no recompilation required, changes apply instantly.

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.
