Immich self-hosting guides
Use these guides with the calculator to plan hardware, storage, backup, deployment cost and scaling choices before you spend money on a home photo cloud.
Start here
- Open the SelfHostPlanner calculator to model storage growth, backup copies and monthly cost.
- Immich hardware sizing guide explains CPU, RAM and workload planning.
- Immich server cost guide turns hardware and hosting choices into a budget.
Storage and backup
- Storage and backup planning covers growth, redundancy and practical backup structure.
- Immich cloud backup cost compares backup-provider cost assumptions.
- Immich backup implementation guide translates the plan into an operating checklist.
- Immich restore drill and RTO turns backup copies into measured recovery evidence.
- Immich external libraries backup and restore covers read-only mounts, scans, metadata risk and recovery paths.
Performance and constrained hosts
- Run Immich on a 4GB RAM host explains the official low-memory exception and a safe reduction sequence.
- Remote machine learning keeps ML features on another trusted host.
- GPU and hardware transcoding explains when video or machine-learning acceleration is justified.
- Large-library performance covers SSD database placement, imports and job queues.
