# Docker Click the link below to get started **Minimum Requirements:** * Memory: 512MB (1GB recommended) + 1GB Swap (2GB recommended) * Storage: 1GB+ * Persistent storage. When using Docker, it’s important to configure a **persistent volume** or a **bind mount** to ensure the data isn’t lost when the container restarts. \* (\*) Our Docker examples contain the volume. You can manually download the docker-compose.yml file and then run: docker compose up . Here is the command to run the Hub on Docker: ``` docker run -v ~/.local/share/albyhub:/data -e WORK_DIR='/data' -p 8080:8080 --pull always ghcr.io/getalby/hub:latest ``` {% hint style="warning" %} We recommend having a solid understanding of Docker management before attempting to host your Alby Hub in a Docker container. If you're not experienced with Docker, please avoid this method, as it could lead to potential loss of funds. {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
