PocketHost is an open-source, multi-tenant hosting platform for PocketBase that can run hundreds or thousands of isolated PocketBase instances on a single server or edge network. It bundles database, auth, SSL, custom domains, SFTP access, and Docker-based isolation behind a simple CLI and dashboard.

Use cases

• host multiple pocketbase instances on one server
• self-host a pocketbase backend with ssl
• give each project its own pocketbase subdomain
• run a multitenant backend-as-a-service for indie apps
• deploy pocketbase with custom domains automatically
• migrate from firebase or supabase to pocketbase
• manage pocketbase instances via cli and sftp

When to choose

• you want zero-config hosting for many PocketBase projects
• you need per-instance isolation, SSL, and custom domains out of the box
• you prefer an open-source, self-hostable alternative to Firebase or Supabase
• you want to run thousands of lightweight SQLite-backed instances on one VPS

When to avoid

• you need a managed Postgres or relational database beyond SQLite
• you require heavy per-instance compute or dedicated resources
• you only host a single app and a plain PocketBase binary suffices
• you need enterprise-grade multi-region orchestration features
