A self-hosted ERP platform. Your hardware, your data, your rules.
Archestack is a self-hosted ERP and business-software platform. It runs on a single VPS or your own on-premise box, with PostgreSQL underneath and Docker compose to deploy. No vendor cloud in the path between you and your data.
What "self-hosted" actually means here.
A lot of "self-hosted ERP" products are really "we sometimes ship a tarball if you ask nicely". Archestack is the other shape. Every Archestack instance, including our own trial environments, runs from the same Docker compose stack. There is no separate enterprise build, no cloud-only feature set, no proprietary deploy tooling.
- One compose file brings up the API, the database, Keycloak, and the reverse proxy. No external services required.
- The database is plain PostgreSQL.
pg_dumpis the backup.psqlis the recovery. - Caddy fronts the stack and handles TLS for whichever domain you point at the server. No vendor DNS, no vendor certs.
- Files (PDFs, attachments) live on the same box, on a volume you mount and back up however you back up everything else.
Where it runs.
Anywhere a Docker daemon does. People run Archestack on:
An EU VPS
Hetzner, OVH, Scaleway, whichever European host meets your data-residency rules. A modest 4-core / 8 GB instance carries a small business comfortably.
On-premise hardware
A small server in the office. Useful when your warehouse handhelds, scales, or PLCs talk to the same LAN and you don't want every roundtrip to leave the building.
Private cloud
Your existing AWS / Azure / GCP account, on whichever shape suits you. The stack doesn't care; nothing in it is provider-specific.
Your data, your backups, your exit ramp.
The reason "self-hosted" matters is leverage. If we ever stop being a good fit for you, you do not need our cooperation to leave. The database is yours. The schema is yours. The Docker images run with or without our involvement. Take a backup and walk away.
We think this is how business software should work. It changes the conversation: we earn the relationship by being useful, not by being expensive to leave.
