Installing Metabase |
|
Metabase is built and packaged as a Java JAR file and can be run anywhere that Java is available.
Metabase Cloud is the easiest way to run Metabase. All you need to do is sign up for a free trial, and you're off to the races.
For an overview on how to self-host Metabase, check out how to run Metabase in production.
Run Metabase in a Docker container.
If you're self-hosting but don’t use Docker, the JAR is the easiest way to get started, but it might make it more challenging to move to production. See running the Metabase Jar.
If you're self-hosting because you need an air-gapped environment, check out the air-gapped edition of Metabase.
