How Wiki.js is hosted

Valebyte launches the application automatically in a managed container. You receive its URL and application access, but not root access to the host system.

info Overview

Wiki.js is a powerful, modern open-source wiki and knowledge base built on Node.js — a self-hosted alternative to Confluence and Notion for teams, documentation and internal knowledge. It pairs a beautiful WYSIWYG and Markdown editor with full-text search, page versioning and history, granular access control and a clean, fast interface your whole team can use.

Valebyte hosting model: Wiki.js launches automatically as a managed application. Choose a region and resource plan; after checkout you receive the application URL and app-level access, normally within minutes. Valebyte maintains the host infrastructure. Root access to the host is not provided, and infrastructure backups are not enabled automatically.

quiz Frequently Asked Questions

Is Wiki.js a good self-hosted Confluence or Notion alternative? expand_more

Yes. Wiki.js gives you a modern team wiki with a WYSIWYG and Markdown editor, versioning, search and access control — a Confluence or Notion-style knowledge base, self-hosted on your own server with full data ownership.

Does it come with a database? expand_more

Yes. Valebyte deploys the complete stack — the Wiki.js app together with its own PostgreSQL database — automatically, so there is nothing extra to set up.

How do I set up the admin? expand_more

On your first visit Wiki.js walks you through creating the administrator account — you choose the admin email and password on the setup screen. There is no preset password.

How long does deployment take? expand_more

A few minutes. Valebyte pulls the Wiki.js and PostgreSQL images, wires them together, issues an HTTPS certificate and starts them, then you complete the first-run admin setup.

Does it support Markdown and a visual editor? expand_more

Yes. Wiki.js offers a rich WYSIWYG visual editor alongside a full Markdown editor, so writers can use whichever they prefer, with live preview and versioned history.

Is our knowledge base private? expand_more

Yes. All pages, files and user accounts live in your managed Valebyte application environment and are never shared with a third party. You control the application data.
