You may wonder why you should bother thinking about installing Metabase on a real server? Well, installing Metabase on a local server is great for a personnal use, however if your plan is to share your work and make it accessible to others, you will need to have a server in order to make those documents accessible to others. It will be as well really useful for you to access it from anywhere.

- We’ve run Metabase on Heroku and it works just fine, but it’s not hardened for production use just yet. If you’re up for it then give it a shot and let us know how we can make it better! Debian as a service Community support only at this time, but learn how to deploy Metabase as a service on Debian (and Debian-based) systems.

- Heroku Postgres delivers the world’s most advanced open source database as a trusted, secure, and scalable service that is optimized for developers. Developers can build engaging, data-driven apps while relying on Heroku’s expertise and fully managed platform to build, operate, secure, and validate compliance for their data stack.

It is also raising the concen in terms of security as it means that people from the outside could technically access all your database.
Metabase can also be installed through other different options, let's see them below.
- AWS.
- Heroku.
- Docker.
What is AWS?
The biggest cloud service ever. It's a big service on which you can get the machine you need or want as far as you can pay for it. Batteries for mac. Main issue here is that AWS stands for Amazon Web Services, so to say by using this solution you will lose the advantage of using Metabase because you will host your data on a GAFAM web hosting platform.
What is Heroku?
Metabase On Heroku Roblox
So as AWS, Heroku is a cloud service providing apps including Metabase in order to deploy it straight away. Heroku is a proprietary technology which belong to Salesforce.. where high chances that data are stored on AWS. So, to me no reason to choose this solution for a deployment.
What is Docker?
Docker is a flexible way to deploy apps on your server.
As you can see from those options, only Docker is a viable option for a Free software enthousiast, so that's the option we are going to choose. The official documentation is available here:
Getting started
The first step is about connecting to your server:
ssh identifier@your-ip
if you don't remember how to type that out, just enter history in order to see the last time you executed this request.
Next step is about creating a directory which will host your metabase data, so once on your server just run at root:
mkdir metabase-data
Then run:
docker run -d -p 3000:3000
-v ~/metabase-data:/metabase-data
-e 'MB_DB_FILE=/metabase-data/metabase.db'
--name metabase metabase/metabase
If you are not sure that an app is using a given port, run:
netstat -tulpn
and it will give you the busy ports, for example.
If port 3000 is taken, just change the lines like this:
docker run -d -p 3001:3000
-v ~/metabase-data:/metabase-data
-e 'MB_DB_FILE=/metabase-data/metabase.db'
--name metabase metabase/metabase
and it will do the job.
Ok so now, we need to have a URL is https in order to run our app. So let's run:
sudo certbot certonly -d your-domain-nameCongratulations you now have an https.
So go within /etc/apache2/sites-available/ and create a file such as, ending in .conf:
<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName your-domain.com
ProxyPass / http://localhost:3001/
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyRequests off
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:3001/
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/your-domain.com/fullchain.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/your-domain.com/privkey.pem
Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf
</VirtualHost>
</IfModule>
and you need to activate it with:
sudo a2ensite your-file.conf
then you need to restart your server with:
sudo systemctl reload apache2
and you should be now good to go when you type the url of your domain in the address bar:
Next steps are just about mentioning the credentials you would like to use to connect to Metabase and you are good to go.
This summer, we announced the beta release of our new streaming data connectors between Heroku Postgres and Apache Kafka on Heroku. These connectors make Change Data Capture (CDC) possible on Heroku with minimal effort. Anyone with a Private or Shield Space, as well as a Postgres and an Apache Kafka add-on in that space, can use Streaming Data Connectors today at no additional charge.
Customers use connectors to build streaming data pipelines between Salesforce and external stores like a Snowflake data lake or an AWS Kinesis queue for integration with other data sources. They also refactor monoliths into microservices, implement an event-based architecture, archive data in lower-cost storage services, and more.
Other customers use connectors to build a unified event feed from data in multiple Salesforce and Work.com orgs, which provides a centralized Kafka-based Event Bus to take action on all org activity. Multiple integrations are possible in this configuration, including Heroku apps in dynos, Salesforce Flow, Mulesoft, and more.
And we’ve uncovered new opportunities for further enhancements and integrations in the months to come.
We’ve also made multiple improvements to the beta product to prevent lost events during a Postgres maintenance and minimize lost events during a Postgres failover scenario. We also added an update command to make changes to tables or columns after initial provisioning and updated Debezium to the latest 1.3 release.
Metabase On Heroku Vs
It’s as easy as heroku data:connectors:create
Metabase On Heroku Map
To get started, make sure you have the latest CLI plugin. Then create a connector by identifying the Postgres source and Apache Kafka store by name, specifying which table(s) to include, and optionally listing which columns to exclude:

Feedback Welcome
Streaming Data Connectors open a new frontier of data-driven development for our customers and us. We look forward to seeing what you can do with it.
